An arrangement for brass quintet of the famous Beethoven minuet. This work has endless possibilities in a concert programme due to its use in numerous films (eg The Music Man, Paradise Road, Heaven and Earth) and its comedic possibilities. Parts are supplied for: Part 1 - Trumpet/Cornet Part 2 - Trumpet/Cornet Part 3 - Horn in F/Eb Part 4 - Trombone/Euphonium/Baritone (Bass/Treble) Part 5 - Tuba/Eb Bass (Bass/Treble)

Written for his son, after the tragedy of his young son's death, It was my pleasure to arrange such a poignant piece. It is a Trombone feature.

Can you imagine that night? As a virgin gives birth to Messiah and hundreds of prophecies are fulfilled. When Mary finally got to sleep that night . . . She slept in heavenly peace. Peaceful and lovingly played, it will work wonderfully as an offertory. Grade 2 Along with the traditional brass instrumentation (Trumpet 1 and 2, Horn, Trombone and Tuba), there are substitution parts provided for: Alto Sax (for Trumpet 2) Alto Sax (for Horn) Trumpet 3 (for Horn) Trombone (for Horn) Baritone Treble Cleff/Tenor Sax (for Trombone) Baritone Sax (for Tuba) Horn (for Trombone)

The song was a success on its initial release and was certified Gold by the RIAA on August 18, 1971 and Platinum on April 10, 2017. The song became one of John Denver's most popular and beloved songs, and is still very popular around the world. The song also has a prominent status as an iconic symbol of West Virginia, which it describes as "almost Heaven". I was made an Honorary West Virginian in 2005 by Governor Joe Manchin, and so I dedicate the arrangement for brass quintet to the Heaven like State.

?How Can I Keep From Singing?? is, perhaps, the second most well-known gospel hymn authored by Robert Lowry (1826-1899) ? the first being ?Shall We Gather at the River?? Born in Philadelphia, Lowry studied at Pennsylvania's Lewisburg (today Bucknell) University; was ordained a Baptist minister in 1854; served in churches in Pennsylvania, New York, and New Jersey; and later returned to Lewisburg and served as chancellor. Best remembered as a writer of more than 500 gospel songs and hymns, Lowry served as editor for Biglow and Main publishing company, where he edited numerous gospel song books and hymn books. Like Horatio Spafford?s ?It Is Well With My Soul,? Lowry?s ?How Can I Keep From Singing?? (also known as ?Endless Song?) expresses confidence in the eternal promises of Christ in spite of temporal circumstances. Its first verse and refrain proclaim: "My life flows on in endless song above earth?s lamentation; I catch the sweet, though far-off hymn, that hails a new creation. (Refrain): No storm can shake my inmost calm while to that Rock I?m clinging; since Christ is Lord of heaven and earth, how can I keep from singing?" This intermediate-level arrangement is quick to rehearse, satisfying to play, and well-received by audiences. Suitable for high school ensembles, church and community musicians, and professionals for use in concert, recital, and worship. Ideal as a prelude or offertory/communion anthem. �Copyright 2016 Todd Marchand / ConSpiritoMusic.com
