Thanks.

(Cross-posted from Nate’s Notes)

Over the past week, I have received messages from several people who performed Resurrection Hymn this past Sunday for Easter.  I am grateful for your willingness to use my music.  It is humbling to have so many excellent musicians bringing my music to life, including my own Ward Choir.

Resurrection Hymn is available in vocal solo, SAB, SSA, and TBB arrangements.  The SATB version will be available soon.  Again, thank you all for making Resurrection Hymn one of the most performed pieces I’ve written.

Texty česky – Czech it out!

Martin Prachař contacted me a few weeks ago to inquire about providing Czech language translations of a couple of arrangements from NathanHoweMusic.com. Since then, he has not only provided translated sheet music for the SSA version of Father in Heaven, but he has also made a beautiful instrumental mp3 of it.  He has also created rehearsal mp3s of the individual parts.  See all his work on this song here.

Martin has also created a lovely instrumental mp3 for Abide with Me (available here), and he has posted Czech translations of pieces by several other LDS composers on his website.  If you don’t know how to read Czech, you might use Google Translate to explore his site.

Martin has given a lot of time and effort to make these translations and recordings available.  If you speak Czech, or if you simply want an arrangement in a different language for your choir, visit Texty česky.
