JRJ - Sacred Music

James R. Jennings

Home Page

These pages feature MIDI files and NWC (Noteworthy Composer) scores of choral works by Bach, Dubois, Mendelssohn, Palestrina, Stainer, and Zingarelli and organ compositions by Buxtehude. Among the multi-movement compositions, some have been completely sequenced (e. g. Bach's Magnificat in D, Cantata #4, Dubois' Seven Last Words of Christ, Mendelssohn's Elijah, New!

Mendelssohn's St. Paul), while others may consist of only a movement or two at present. More selections are planned, so be sure to check back from time to time to see what is new. Software to read scores written in NWC format can be downloaded free of charge.

African American Spirituals

This section includes MIDI files and NWC (Noteworthy Composer) scores for a collection of favorite African American spirituals in four part arrangements, and including guitar chords. From time to time more sprituals will be added.

Religious songs for the handicapped

Once a month we present a free Gospel sing for some handicapped folks (No, you don't need to be handicapped to participate). Here, you can download most of the songs we do for them.

Making violins/fiddles

These pages feature various instruments that I have made or repaired, together with some discussion of the process. I expect to post more eventually.

Various favorite links.

The links page leads to various useful, interesting, or fun stuff.
