Sacred Solos by Donald Spies

It is an honor to share these five solos composed by Donald Spies, whose academic and performance achievements were numerous and impressive. “Mrs. Eddy’s poems are used often as church solos. Unusual musical and rhythmic flavors of settings of these words will often bless the receptive listener with multi-faceted insights and fuller appreciation of the poems themselves.” (from the Foreword)

Includes two books: a saddle stitched book for the soloist, and a plastic comb book for the accompanist to play from. FOLD-OUT pages mean no page turns for the accompanist during a solo.

Christ, My Refuge (“O’er waiting harpstrings of the mind”)
Christmas Morn (“Blest Christmas morn, though murky clouds”)
“Feed my Sheep” (“Shepherd, show me how to go”)
Love (“Brood o’er us with Thy shelt’ring wing”)
Mother’s Evening Prayer (“O gentle presence, peace and joy and power”)
