Description

Book 3, designed for late elementary students, features a selection of solos including well-loved pieces such as "Onward Christian Soldiers," "I Need Thee Every Hour," "Shall We Gather at the River," "Rock of Ages," and "What Wondrous Love Is This." These compositions vary in style, with some embracing a country or gospel influence, while others demand a more reverent approach that encourages lyrical and expressive performance. The book not only provides background information on the pieces and their composers but also includes recordings to aid in preparation or simply for enjoyment.
