Features of Top 5000 Traditional Hymns - Basic Version

The Top 5000 Traditional Hymns is the basic version of the Christian Virtual Hymnal 20k. It contains the 5,000 most used hymns. Included functionality is the following:

See all music on your screen exactly as it will print. Features include:

  • Traditional 4 part SATB harmony as found in the physical hymnals;
  • Transpose to any key;
  • Scale the music and/or verses to almost any size and quickly reformat;
  • Re-order verses and/or delete any verses --- display/print just the verses you want;
  • Search for hymns with specified attributes (e.g., tune, meter, words, phrases);
  • Verses under the notes or after the hymn in 1 or 2 column format;

And when playing hymns,

  • Change tempos and specify number of times to repeat playing;
  • Specify different general MIDI instruments for the treble and bass clefs;
  • When playing a hymn more than once, specify different instruments to be used for each repetition (much like when an organist changes the organ stops at the beginning of each stanza);

Altogether 5,000 of the most popular public domain selections are included ready for use. No CCLI license required. The video below demonstrates the functionality of the Top 5000 Traditional Hymns:
