(Modern Arrangement / one-page PDF) words by Charles Wesley (adapted by George Whitefield) /music by Felix Mendelssohn (adapted by William H. Cummings) arranged by Chuck Marohnic (edited by Russell Schmidt)
The Christmas carol we know as Hark! The Herald Angels Sing is a glorious combination of components created in two different centuries by a pair of very familiar names: noted English hymnist Charles Wesley and famed German composer Felix Mendelssohn. In this revised Jazz Hymnal edition, arranger Chuck Marohnic has partnered the familiar melody with a modern, creative approach to its harmony, putting a fresh spin on this beloved classic.
Fully-notated for solo piano, the music also includes chord symbols, allowing both classical and jazz pianists to enjoy playing the carol.
