£11.02Classic Hymns for Orchestra - The Music of Kenneth Downie - CD Hard Copy
This unique and innovative album features 15 magnificent arrangements of classic hymns for orchestra by Kenneth Downie. All hymns have been given imaginative and highly creative treatments, being both contemplative music for personal listening as well as 'pre-service' church music.
