Away In A Manger
$5.95
A Rich Heffler Music arrangement. The piece begins with a statement of “Flow Gently Sweet Afton,” in the piano and is restated by the soloist in a ritornello format. The second statement is made in the piano while soloist soars above it with an obbligato. The piece then switches to “Luther’s Hymn” and then breaks into a variation-like presentation and then begins a free form. The final section imitates the beginning one and then becomes solemn and peaceful.

I Wonder As I Wander
$4.50This solo is plaintive throughout as it begins with a simple melodic motive. The first verse is simply stated in the solo while supported with broken chords in the piano. The second verse is much like the first but the piano not supports the tune with gentle punctuations. The third verse is in the piano while the solo line produces a ebb and repose obbligato- the two line join together in a dramatic cadence and then settles down to a quite repose where the piano continues in a solemn flavor. The final statement in the solo is much like the first where it is joined with moving scale patterns in the piano. The two players sweep upward one last time to then settle down into solemnity.
