Description
This is original version of my setting of Adon Olam, based on the traditional melody for the old Jewish prayer by that name.
The vocal part can be sung by an alto or a baritone.
Other versions of this tune in various instrumental arrangements are available on this site.
The sound sample here is part of a live performance by David W Solomons (alto and guitar) (with Tasse on alto recorder - but for the purposes of this particular score ignore the recorder part), As a sample, it only goes as far as the second stanza, but the score contains all the stanzas.
