More about Brian Richey:
I am not a professional musician. My background is medicine. I just happened to learn piano when I was 8 and despite only a few years of piano lessons (because my piano teacher suffered from Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis or ALS) my theory and technique never got past the "Bastian Level 3 series." That, however, did NOT stop my branch president father from calling me to be primary pianist at age 9 then sacrament pianist at 12. When I turned 19 and called to a mission in SLC-South, I came to learn Wilberg's music as well as James Kasen. I listen to their compositions and try to emulate in my works. After being ward organist for over 22+ years, I take the hymn from the hymn book and "embellish" it as Wilberg, Murphy, and other talented musicians do for us at every General Conference and/or Music & The Spoken Word. I try to add dynamics to the meeting and bring out the spirit with my music. Am I professional? No. Am I any good? Well that depends if anyone else can play in my ward. In this instance, they don't. There are several hymns that I have not arranged yet. As hymns are selected (like over the past 4 years), I try to create a new arrangement in time for Sunday's service. I believe music should be shared and this is to enhance worship- it is not mine but the Almighty. This is my way or praising and I hope you see it my way as well. Cheers.

So here is the back story......Today is July 2nd and in two days is July 4th so naturally beginning of the week I started on revising the patriotic hymns only to find out two days ago the hymns are not patriotic but "Because I have been given much" and "Abide with Me." Believe me, I had plans this weekend until a nasty thunderstorm rolled through yesterday ruining my plans at the river so this is what I put together in a moment's notice. I'm hoping it sounds better on the organ than the simulated mp3 file. Oh, and FYI My County Tis of Thee would've been awesome. *sigh* There's always next year.
Update: I am putting it back into A flat Major. Muscle memory kept messing me up when I went up a step.
