Arrangements for Brasses

How Great Thou Art
Tune: O Store Gud
Arranged by Jayne Southwick Cool

This suite from the Arrangements for Brasses series consists of four movements, each containing the entire hymn tune. The harmonies are lush, and the horizontal movement is melodic within each part. Each movement is descriptive of one stanza of the hymn tune.

This arrangement is scored for a standard brass quintet (I & II Trumpets, F Horn, Trombone, and Tuba): but other parts are included, so the quintet can be formed in different ways, or various doublings may be made for larger ensembles. This is an instrumental composition, not suitable for congregational accompaniment. The difficulty level is 3.

Full set includes a Full Score, transposed parts for individual instruments, background notes, and suggestions for rehearsal and performance.
