All Things Bright and Beautiful

a composition for piano by Robert Train Adams
masterlist : piano

Duration

1'50"

Description

A playful setting of Royal Oak. The original tune is in 4/4; my setting is in 3/4. Sometimes the melody spills over into the next measure; at other times the melody is modified to fit the smaller measure. In typical organ chorale fashion the accompanying voice (here predominantly the left hand) draws its inspiration from the hymn tune, causing occasional stretches of canon or heterophony.
