In Classic Hymns, Philip Sparke has taken 10 of the best-loved hymn tunes, popular around the world, and used them as the basis of a collection of short recital pieces, ranging from simple descant arrangements to a full-blown theme and variations. Ideal for concert or contest use, these charming pieces range in mood from triumphal to reflective and can provide that 'musical moment' and a time for meditation in church services and religious occasions of all kinds.
