Holy, Holy, Holy
This is another great hymn that has been arranged in many ways. As is the case with many hymns whose most popular harmonization is for SATB, the harmonic pace can be too swift for a band to play without the arrangement sounding choppy and disjointed. I tried to slow the harmony down in this arrangement by simplifying some of the changes and harmonies to work with more of a guitar feel. Personally, I love and probably prefer to sing this hymn with standard 4-part arrangement, but this feel adds some variety to a classic hymn. As is my custom, I added an interlude based on the melodic material of the 4th stanza. I recommend doing the interlude at the beginning, ending, and in between verses 2 and 3.
