5.0 out of 5 stars The Best Spiritual Arrangements, June 8, 2009

The late Moses Hogan was the finest arranger of African American spirituals to ever take on the craft. This book is full of incredible (and difficult) piano parts that paint beautiful and exciting stages for long time favorites. The arrangements of "Motherless Child," He's Got The Whole World In His Hands," and "He Never Said Mumblin' Word" and particularly wonderful. If you are looking for rich and lush arrangements this book is for you.

This book is excellent! Mr. Hogan's arrangement of "He Never Said A Mumblin' Word" alone is worth the whole price. I have sung several of Mr. Hogan's choral arrangements, but this is the first I have picked up of his solo arrangements. I purchased both the high & low keys. These are a must-have for voice teachers or students looking for original sacred & spiritual arrangements, for worship, contests, or just for singing & praying.
