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.
Love at Home
This arrangement began as a reharmonization intended to accompany the congregation during sacrament meetings. A few months ago, I also wanted to create an a cappella arrangement of a hymn, and one day I decided to combine both ideas into this piece.
I am aware that Mack Wilberg has also written an a cappella arrangement of Love at Home. Because his setting is so well known and admired, I feel it is important to clarify that this arrangement was not conceived as an attempt to imitate or recreate his work. While some listeners may naturally perceive traces of his influence—something almost inevitable given his remarkable contribution to LDS choral music—my intention was to develop an interpretation with its own musical identity, shaped by my personal approach to harmony, texture, and expression.
The tempo marking is Larghetto, as I would like the final tempo choice to remain at the conductor’s discretion. Nevertheless, a suggested tempo of quarter note = 63 is provided. Please feel free to choose the tempo you find most appropriate.
In the near future, I plan to publish both a four-part version (SATB) and a Spanish translation of this arrangement.
As always, thank you very much for taking the time to review my music. I sincerely hope you enjoy it, and if you need anything, please feel free to contact me.
