I Stand All Amazed (SATB – John Leavitt)

I Stand All Amazed (SATB – John Leavitt)
This arrangement of “I Stand All Amazed” was written to highlight two different perspectives on the Atonement of Jesus Christ: the grandeur and triumph of his conquering of death, and also the personal intimacy that this sacrifice is in each individual heart. The music is at times declamatory and magnificent, and at other times tender and profound. It is a simple, but poignant arrangement that should be fairly easy to learn, leaving much more time, hopefully, for bringing musicality and polished sentiment to the performance.
The recording is sung by the Lux Singers, an elite religious choral ensemble under the direction of Leland Spindler. Based out of St. Mary’s Episcopal Church in Provo, Utah, their mission is to sing great works from masters of all religious denominations and sects; to sing for the congregates of all religious faiths, in their places of worship. They strive to share the light of each religion’s musical traditions with the world.

SATB, piano
There Is a Green Hill Far Away (Breeze – SATB)
A favorite of the BYU Young Ambassadors, this arrangement is one of composer Garrett Breeze’s best known works. It was commissioned by director Randy Boothe for the fireside “I Believe in Christ” which toured the United States, the Caribbean, Africa, and Hong Kong. It was then recorded by Dr. Ronald Staehli as part of the BYU Singers Alumni Hymn Project and released as a free digital download (available at www.singersalumni.com). Most recently, it received honorable mention in the 2013 Sounds of Zion Music Composition Contest among works by other well-known LDS composers. The texture of the piece changes dramatically from verse to verse, reflecting the words being sung. It’s most unique feature (the setting in 5/4 time) is also it’s most challenging. However, this quickly becomes natural and lends a new vibrancy to the familiar tune.
*Note* The third verse is written for a 4-part split in the men. In smaller groups, this may be sung by a quartet, which will greatly reduce the amount of time needed to learn the piece.
