Hi Noel,
Actually, I'm partial to Bob Tall's arrangement of Elgar's Nimrod in the
5 Adagios book.

Subject: [rodgersorgan] Plan your own funeral
Having spent the afternoon with a funeral director/church organist
followed by fielding a call from a frantic funeral director this evening
whose out-of-state driving-in organist and singer appeared to be
running late (we covered for him...they got here in time) and observing
the last rites performed by auto mechanic as he lowered the hood on my
1996 Dodge Stratus (As he intoned the words "Just a few more miles and
you would have made it to 250,000...") and then being reminded of some
beautiful hymntunes by Fran, it hit me!
All members are invited to post their musical plan for their funeral.
If nothing else, we will get some great repertoire suggestions. Try to
list edition and all.
How about Nimrod from the Enigma Variations by Elgar...Out of the Oxford
collection book I of the Elgar organ works.
And the ravishingly beautiful Jesus Thou Joy by Emma Lou Diemer out of
the Dale Wood edited Collection with the Red cover...sorry it's in the
car...the one Rodney Barbour plays on the 900 Series CD by Rodgers...IF
you haven't heard that, get one from Rodgers. It's a great
romantic-voiced Cincinnati, Ohio area ROdgers.
