Arrangements for Brasses
O Little Town of Bethlehem Tune: St. Louis Arranged by Mark Albrecht This composition from the Arrangements for Brasses series provides a smooth, rich sound. Running eighth-note phrases, particularly in the F Horn, add melodic and rhythmic interest. Although written as an independent instrumental piece, it contains three distinct treatments of the entire carol tune -- all in the typical singing key of F. This allows playing it also as congregational accompaniments. This arrangement is scored for a standard brass quintet (I & II Trumpets, F Horn, Trombone, and Tuba). An alternate F Horn part in pIace of the II Trumpet, an alternate Trombone part in place of the (regular) F Horn, and a Baritone T.C. part in place of the (regular) Trombone are included. The difficulty level is 3. Full set includes a Full Score, transposed parts for individual instruments, background notes, and suggestions for rehearsal and performance.
