#med (Music.Every.Day)

This is video #794 of my video posting project. I have been working on this project since November 2023--learning and posting a video of NEW piano music every. single. day! My mini project-within-a-project is to play a Gospel or Hymn jazz arrangement every Sunday.

Today's piece is "Take My Life and Let It Be" by Louis J. F. Herold. This arrangement can be found in Hal Leonard's collection of Jazz Piano Solos in the volume called "Hymns". This collection of jazz arrangements was written by Brent Edstrom.

This is a lovely hymn, written with a bit of jazz styling. I like these arrangements--they add a little bit of life and imagination into these hymns, performed for enjoyment, and not necessarily in a conservative type of religious service! I like that they provide a foundation to build upon, and I am a great admirer of Brent Edstrom's arrangements of these older hymns.

Happy Sunday!

Tune in tomorrow for more of my #music.every.day experiment!
