About this arrangement

Guitar - Level 2 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1313790 By Ron k Wiggins. By Gerald Moultie. Arranged by Ron k Wiggins. Christian,Christmas,Classical,Religious. Guitar Tab. 2 pages. WigMusic #902505. Published by WigMusic (A0.1313790). The words to “Let All Mortal Flesh Keep Silence” is based on the Old Testament book of “Habakkuk 2:20 and became part of the “Divine Liturgy of St James” in the fifth century and was chanted.  The melody had its origins by Gerald Moultie 1829-1885 who based it on a medieval French folk melody called Picardy. There have been other translations and arrangements, most notably by Ralph Vaughan Williams 1872-1958.This relatively easy arrangement for Classical Guitar is first in D minor with the melody in the treble and then a very creative version with the melody in the Bass.  It wraps up in E minor with a lot of open strings and going all the way up to the 12th fret.  The overall result is beautiful and if you can play the basic “F” type bar chord it is not real difficult to play.Note that the YouTube video has a slightly different arrangement (actually a performance error) but I doubt you can find it.  The audio file provided here is correct.
