Most of the Hymns associated with the High Holy days of Christmas and Easter are found in this package of virtuoso descants. These descants are intended to be played in the stratosphere, as recorded by the author, but most can be realized an octave lower. Parts are supplied for B-Flat piccolo trumpet and D or E-Flat trumpet, as is appropriate for the key. I prefer to use the A / Bb piccolo trumpet.

The Hymns as found in the Episcopal Hymnal 1982
May Jesus Christ be praised * All hail the power of Jesus' name * Praise God from whom all blessings flow * Come thou almighty King * O God our help in ages past * Angels we have heard on high * Hark, the Herald Angels sing * In Dulci Jubilo * Joy to the World * Angels from the realms of glory * Easter Hymn * Come ye thankfull people come * Praise to the Lord * Now thank we all our God * The strife Is o'er, the battle won * He Is risen, * God of the prophets, bless the prophet's son * We gather together to ask the Lord's blessing * The Lord will come and not be slow * Crown him with many crowns * How firm a foundation * Come Holy Ghost, creator blest * Jesus shall reign where 'er the sun * Lift up your heads, ye mighty gates * Love divine, all loves excelling * Welcome happy morning! age to age shall say * Westminster Abbey *
These descants have been recorded on CD by the author. (See Recordings) See review, Fall '96, Intl. Trumpet Guild Journal.
