(Summer 2005) I LOVE REQUESTS! It brings such joy to me when someone asks me to write an arrangement for them. This time it was my illustrious ward choir director Dr. Jim Harrison of Cedar City's famed Master Singers. Being his pianist, we were looking at some 24th of July music, and he just wanted a "fancy" arrangement with a glorified piano part and the voices how he said. Well, I can do a glorified piano part, I can! Plus I added the congregation in the third verse after the key change, because it just feels right. I assume it's a little late for Pioneer Day for everyone but our mega-talented 17th ward choir, but there's always next year...
