Publisher Desc.  This arrangement of "In The Sweet By and By" was written in response to the sudden and unexpected passing of a member of a church choir. This particular choir member was very gracious with her time and always opened her home for large get togethers after the biannual Cantata. On the rare occasion that she missed rehearsal, she could be found Sunday, lightly playing her part on the piano before anyone would arrive. The beginning single line piano introduction of the piece is a nod to her diligence in learning her part so she wouldn't let the group down. The piece ends with the single piano line returning playing "We shall meet on that beautiful shore" a gentle reminder that life is short and greater things await those who place their trust in Christ as their Savior. This SAB arrangement is well suited for adult choir but also would work well with a Junior High choir, honoring the passion she had working with the conrmands at her local church.
