Near to the Old Rugged Cross

Review:      Dan Edwards brings two standard hymns seamlessly together in this gentle arrangement. The variety of extended techniques and familiarity of the cherished hymns will inspire your ringers to rise to the challenge, paying particular attention to the LV sections to ensure a splendid performance. Begins in the key of D major for Near the Cross, then modulates to G Major for The Old Rugged Cross. Optional repeats are included for both hymn tunes. 94 measures (without repeats).
