Arrangements for Brasses

O Jesus, I Have Promised
Tune: Angel's Story
Arranged by Jayne Southwick Cool

After an antiphonal Introduction between brasses and organ in this composition from our Arrangements for Brasses series, there are four complete stanzas (three different settings) of the hymn tune, with an Interlude between stanzas three and four. A reproducible bulletin insert is included for congregations whose hymnals use a different tune for this text.

This arrangement can be played by as few as four instruments (typically I & II Trumpets, and I & II Trombones). Parts are included for I & II F Horns, Baritone T.C., and Tuba, so that quartets can be formed in different ways, or various doublings may be made for larger ensembles. The arrangement can accompany a congregation, or can be played as an instrumental suite of variations on the hymn. The difficulty level is 3.

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