Product Description
This easy level arrangement of Blessed Assurance is written for Violin and Piano, with full lyrics included in the score, making it ideal for beginner and early-intermediate players, teachers, churches, and educational settings. The hymn was written by Fanny J. Crosby (1873) with music by Phoebe P. Knapp, and is one of the most beloved Christian hymns worldwide.
In this duo setting, the violin carries the complete main melody entirely in first position, using simple rhythms and stepwise melodic motion that support intonation, bow control, and expressive phrasing, while the piano provides a simple and supportive hymn-style accompaniment. This edition focuses on traditional classical notation without chord symbols, preserving a classical church and hymnbook style. The peaceful and devotional character of the hymn is fully preserved, making it suitable for student duets, worship services, teaching, and recitals.
