The music of Charles O. Beck

I Sing the Hymn Electronique

A collection of ‘synthesized’ hymns

Cover artThe pieces in this collection are all new instrumental arrangements of some of the most belovéd traditional hymns. Of course, I could not do simple arrangements that were flat and insipid—I just had to give each one the stamp of my own creative interpretation. Still, I hope that you will find them interesting, even enlightening.

They are not necessarily intended to be experienced sequentially.

For a richer experience with these arrangements, be sure to check out the video versions on my YouTube channel: The music of Charles O. Beck

NOTE: The pieces on this page do not auto-play in any sequence. Sorry, but you'll have to click to hear each one individually.

May Jesus Christ Be Praised Fairest Lord Jesus
It Is Well with My Soul Holy, Holy, Holy
Amazing Grace Let Us Break Bread Together
Were You There? The Old Rugged Cross
Victory in Jesus

“Praise Him with trumpet sound... harp and lyre... timbrel... stringed instruments and pipes... loud cymbals...”


...and synthesizers?


“Praise the Lord!”

— Psalm 150
The Bible
