If ever a single word, much more than melodic line or harmonic treatment, becomes the conduit for remembering repertoire, this is the piece. The word “nearer” is so pervasively structured into every phrase of “Nearer, Still Nearer” and “Nearer My God to Thee,” that single reflective word continues to resound at the conclusion of practice and performance sessions. However, the text always leans heavily on worthily composed music.
