Charles Wesley at 300: A Poet with a Mission

This resource brings together musical settings from the sixteenth to the twenty-first century by John F. Lampe, George F. Handel, and J. S. Bach, with options for solo and congregational participation. These musical settings are appropriate for piano, organ, or harpsichord, and bass continuo may also be added. In addition, there is a group of newly composed and arranged musical settings of Wesley texts, some of which are appropriate for praise teams/bands and other contemporary instrumental and singing groups, as well as new arrangements of some traditional musical settings. A companion double CD is available which also includes the sacred cantata The Good Samaritan: Through the Eyes of the Victim based on the series of poems by Charles Wesley arranged in a Libretto by S T Kimbrough, Jr. and set to music by Mary K. Jackson.
