Here are some of the hymns we have worked on. Eventually we may have more available possibly on a searchable database to purchase or to be included in our publication.

At the time of updating, this list is very small compared with the number of hymns we have worked on. In time we will add sufficient here to illustrate the widest spectrum possible subject to copyright. The Volume will contain play-over and bridge details of about 210 tunes representing just over 250 song or hymn titles. The total number of song and hymn tunes that we have studied exceeds 500.

First lines/Title Tune Notes
And can it be SAGINA This has been very successful and the relatively long bridge gives a much needed break for the voices. A shorter bridge is available too.
The Lord's my Shepherd CRIMOND Written out in 6:4 an extra half bar has been added at the end of lines 2 & 4.
Your play-over may comprise all lines or lines 1 & 4 going straight in as set without pause or rallentando. Keep the pace up and this will work very well.
Dear Lord and Father of mankind REPTON
All hail the power of Jesu's Name MILES LANE
All hail the power of Jesu's Name DIADEM
Guide me, O thou great Redeemer CWM RHONDDA I jump to the last line in the play-over. It gives the congregation just that bit more warning that they are about to sing!
Praise, my soul, the King of Heaven PRAISE MY SOUL 4 pages
For Mary, mother of our Lord
I come with joy
ST BOTOLPH This hymn has a feel of 6:8 about it and that highlights the weakness of the end of the second line; I have added a bar here to make the singing much easier; it flows beautifully.

Here is my setting for All Things Bright and Beautiful.

Please feel free to download and save it. The problem with this hymn is getting it started so I use the obvious descending notes in the base. But note how I get there; the refrain cuts to the second half of the verse half way through. All Things Bright and Beautiful comes out regularly at weddings and funerals and this method of playing it works perfectly every time! Give it a try and whatever you do, DON'T pause or rallentando anywhere; maintain a strict rhythmic tempo.


Example of the music that I propose to include in the document (not subject to copyright...)
Note: the images print clearly in the document. Those made available in PDF on this site
will also print much more clearly than the above.
