What are anthems from Grace?
They've been developed for Sunday Worship Gatherings, annual "Living Christmas Tree" pageants, and other special events. These songs, choral arrangements, and orchestrations have been tried and proven effective in a real church setting.
Our music is designed with the larger choir and advanced orchestra in mind. It is challenging to perform and is intended to be so. Our players and singers love the challenge. We think your choir and instrumentalists will too!
Many directors who've used Robert's arrangements say their church musicians have found them artistically satisfying while providing a sense of accomplishment that has actually stimulated the group to grow and improve musically.
Grace Music is a part of the Worship Arts Ministry of the Grace Brethren Church of Columbus, Ohio, known as Grace Polaris, and is a not-for-profit ministry. We are able to offer affordable prices to all churches that use our music by avoiding expensive marketing and by selling directly to you.
We are relying on "word of mouth" to spread the news about the music of the Grace Choir and Orchestra, and Robert Nugent's wonderful writing and arranging skills. If you like what you hear, please tell a fellow music minister.
Thanks for the taking time to see what Grace Music has to offer.
For Him,
Randy Kettering
Director of Arts and Media
Grace Polaris of Columbus, OH
How do downloadable anthems work?
Think of downloadable anthems just like you would regular print music. If you need to pass out 20 copies, purchase 20. If you want your choir and/or orchestra members to have an MP3 listening demo for rehearsal purposes, please buy one for each or them. If you have one orchestra, purchase one orchestration!
