I saw piano duet for O my Father on the front page but can’t find it on your website. Do you have one available?

Hello Sally Deford,
I’m wanting to use the instrumental part on the Youtube recording for the cello/other string instruments. I was looking at the pieces and it seems like the instrument part is different. Is there a separate document for that arrangement for the strings that is used on the Youtube playlist?

Hello Sally. I have been a fan of your beautiful, sacred music for a long time. I have an uncle who is dying from cancer and requested that this song be sing at his funeral, but his three brothers. I wondered if you might have a male vocal arrangement of this song, such as TTB or TBB?

My wife, Judy, combined your O My Father with Abide with Me (O My Father being first of the two), for a medley which I sang for a friend’s funeral.

It worked very well.

Thank you so much for this beautiful arrangement. I will be singing it at my uncles funeral in a week and it is just perfect. The message, the key (I’m an alto) and the gorgeous obbligato all work together sublimely.

In reply to Sue Schwab. Sue, the cello part here is an obbligato for solo voice. If you're looking for a cello solo, you might try the links at the bottom of the page. Happy hunting!

I’m not sure what I’m doing here. My son wanted music for O my father for his cello. Is that what you’re offering? Please and thank you!

I downloaded the Solo (Use with Obbligato for two C instruments) as I wanted to play this piece with the accompaniment music and my flute. But the accompaniment music does not appear to be in the same key as the piece of music that I downloaded. Is this true? If it is true, is there an accompaniment in the key of C which I could use to accompany my flute? Let me know if I am incorrect in my assessment, too. Thank you for your help.

In reply to Sarah Grass. Craig Petrie Family Music has a SSA arrangement for O My Father.
