More about Agustin Martinez:
I began my musical journey at the age of seven, when my parents enrolled me in piano lessons with a member of the Church. With him, I started playing hymns, although for many years I did so only in private and did not participate in meetings. Around 2020, at the age of ten, I stopped playing the piano. Three years later, after moving to a new ward, I reconnected with the music of the Church by joining ward and stake choirs, which sparked a deeper interest in the choral tradition. When I resumed lessons—this time with Ítalo Coello—I began to develop not only my pianistic technique but also my work as an arranger. I currently accompany sacrament meetings on the piano and participate in special musical numbers with the ward choir whenever I am asked. In my arrangements, I seek to respect the original character of the hymn while adding musical clarity, drawing inspiration from the work of the Tabernacle Choir and musicians such as Mack Wilberg, Ryan Murphy, and Ítalo Coello, whom I admire both for their musical approach and their service. My intention is that these arrangements may contribute to worship and help those who perform and hear them draw closer to God.

Song background:

Brightly Beams Our Father's Mercy

This arrangement began after a memorable experience in seminary. A friend and I asked our teacher if we could sing a hymn before class, and he chose Brightly Beams Our Father’s Mercy, one of his favorite hymns. Afterward, he spoke about the line “Let us reflect the beams,” emphasizing that we are not meant to shine with our own light, but to reflect the Savior’s light to others. That thought remained with me long afterward.

Some time later, while sitting at the piano, I felt inspired to create an arrangement of this hymn. This work is therefore dedicated, in part, to one of my seminary teachers whose insight left a lasting impression on me.

Written for SATB choir and organ, this arrangement was begun in November 2025. On May 8, 2026, the score underwent a significant revision in which the harmonies were refined, additional annotations and performance suggestions were added, and the opening soloist section was rewritten with harmonies inspired by the style of a barbershop quartet.

I am grateful to everyone who takes the time to listen to my music, and I would be honored if this arrangement were ever performed. If individual vocal parts are needed, please feel free to contact me by email and I will gladly share them.
