I need some recs for new pieces to play in worship. There's an old thread on this forum that I've referenced over the years, but it seems like I always fall back on the same pieces (I don't play too often, so it's been easy enough to recycle). Mozart, Finzi, German, these are my go-to's. Our music director is also busy enough that him finding time to practice piano parts gets tricky (e.g. I'd love to pull out the Brahms Sonatas, but it's a harder piano part, even for him as an excellent piano player). What have you played in worship recently that's gone over well?

I put together books of "clarinet background pieces" and used a couple of them during services. But I don't tell worshipers the titles.
- Albeniz: Puerta de tierra
- Bozza: Aria
- Debussy: La Fille aux Cheveux de Lin
- Debussy: Petite Piece
- Delmas: Promenade
- Elgar: Chanson de Matin
- Elgar: Chanson de Nuit
- Elgar: Salut D'amour
- Faure: Sicilienne
- Massenet: Meditiation from Thais
- Poot: Arabesque

May I suggest my set of "Spirituals." It's available through Sheet Music Plus. The group has been done many times in this area and has received good response from the audiences. Suitable for worship and recital, both the clarinet and piano parts are satisfying and challenging to play. I would welcome you interest in this music. Included are:
Nobody Knows the Trouble I've Seen
Steal Away
This Little Light of Mine
Down By the Riverside
Plenty Good Room
Wade in the Water
Motherless Child
He's Got the Whole World in His Hands
