This regal and majestic setting of 'All Hail the Power of Jesus' Name,' is designed to bolster congregational singing with 2 Trumpets, 2 Trombones, Timpani, Organ, and Soprano Descant.
 
N.B. It is also possible to perform this work using 2 Trumpets, Horn in F, and Trombone. If this instrumentation is used, the trombonist should read from the Trombone 2 part. Additionally, both Trumpet parts have been prepared for C or B-flat instruments.
 
While dynamic and breath markings have been placed in the score, certain interpretative elements are best left to the discretion of the director. For example, various congregations have differing practices with respect to how many beats are to be taken between stanzas. The breath and dynamic markings that have been placed in the score have been written with the intention of facilitating robust and intuitive congregational singing.
 
The scheme of this arrangement consists of an introduction and three separate settings of the stanzas for brass, timpani, and organ to be played over the course of a four-stanza hymn. If you wish to adapt this to a hymn with more or fewer stanzas, feel free to adapt the scheme to your needs. It is the opinion of this arranger, however, that at least one stanza should be sung without brass or timpani. 
 
Your online purchase of this arrangement allows you to print the score and instrumental parts, and you may print as many copies of the descant as you need for your choir.
