Mendelsohn-Childs - Hear My Prayer

Difficulty:  III 

The lyrical simplicity of its melodic line, combined with the plea of the title makes this one of the most intimate of Mendelssohn's works. Originally composed for soprano voice, chorus and organ, the music is always a dialogue between the individual and the Creator. In its original form Hear My Prayer is approximately twelve minutes in duration, but using material from the early and latter parts of the work David Childs has arranged this shorter version for solo euphonium. 

Parts:  TC and BC
