Be Thou My Vision has a dimension of an entreaty to the Lord, as if asking for the Lord’s presence to be there at all times. Thus, the phrase “Be Thou” repeats as a background during the singing. Even the opening piano introduction speaks the two-note pattern which will fill the entire song. The men’s and women’s voices are paired in dialogue throughout much of the music. Duration: 4:00
The "Downloadable Accompaniment Tracks 1-50 singers" bundle contains a part dominant track for each voice part, a balanced voices track, and an accompaniment track if the work is not a cappella (the accompaniment is also included with the part dominant and balanced voices track). Part dominant tracks are the perfect place to start as the highlighted part is dominant with the other parts in the background for reference. The balanced voices track give a full choir balanced volume mix to allow musicians to hear a piece of music as a full performance. The accompaniment track offers the perfect way to practice singing independently and they can even be used in full choir rehearsals or even school performances.
