Program Notes

Three well-known hymns, the popular Christmas carol Lo, How a Rose E'er Blooming and the hymns It Is Well with My Soul and Were You There are referenced and enhanced in this truly remarkable presentation. This setting of these three cherished hymns is glorious indeed and the careful writing allows each hymn to be programmed alone or in tandem

- Program Note from publisher

Commissioned by and dedicated to the students, both past and present, of the Artie Henry School Band Program.
