Lord of the Dance is a popular hymn composed in 1963 by Sydney Carter, set to the tune of Simple Gifts, an American Shaker song written in 1848 by Elder Joseph Brackett. This original melody, made famous by Aaron Copland in his ballet Appalachian Spring (1944), is one of the most beautiful and recognizable in the American musical tradition. Carter appropriated it to create a joyful and catchy hymn, which has become one of the most sung religious songs in the English-speaking world. Its bouncy melody and festive rhythm make it an ideal piece for the accordion. This level 4/5 sheet music offers a stimulating challenge for advanced accordionists wishing to capture all the energy and joy of this inexhaustible classic.
