A quiet, simple solo for tenor (or soprano), movement 30 of the Messiah is under two minutes long, and labeled an "arioso" (little aria) by Handel. The lyrics speak of Christ's sorrow, and tempos follow the London Philharmonic Orchestra recording.
Em
Campfire steel guitar arrangement of the traditional spiritual. Light percusion beat and western-style guitar. Perfect for children and camp sing alongs.
C
An accompaniment of the classic gospel hymn, featuring piano, electric keyboard and strings. One verse and two choruses, with lots of room for soloists to show their stuff. This is an original arrangement, but close enough to many popular arrangements to be easy to follow.
C F A
A contemporary Christian arrangement of this powerful Easter hymn. Four verses, with guitars, synth, bass, and drums.
D Bb F
A slow, moving aria for alto, Movement 23 of Handel's Messiah, describing Christ's sorrows. Strings gently weep in the accompaniment. As the A section is over five minutes in length, Handel's instructions to continue with a bridge and then repeat the A section in its entirety are rarely followed. This recording ends, like most, at the end of the A section; the bridge is available separately as Spiritrax 1209, "He Gave His Back to the Smiters".
