About this ebook

for SATB and organ or orchestra Featured in My Song in the Night (2009), Amazing grace! is a majestic arrangement of the well-known melody. Beginning with male voices in unison, Wilberg gradually introduces more vocal parts, building ultimately to a grand climax in eight parts. A subtle Scottish influence is evident through the use of drones and a Scotch snap motif in the organ. Orchestral material is available on hire/rental.
