This inspirational hit by Josh Groban makes a stirring selection for a program, and its unmistakable melody is easily recognized by audiences. Written for brass quintet, it features the trombone as a solo instrument. Add a player on the optional drum set part to maximize the breathless effect of the climax of this emotional ballad! If you don't have a french horn, substitute parts are included for baritone t.c. and euphonium. The song comes in at around 4:28 in length. In keeping with the stage setting of the original song's video, the cover art was shot from the stage of Whitley Auditorium at Elon University.

Maurer's 12 Kleine St�cke (12 Little Pieces) for five brass were published posthumously in 1881 and were written for two cornets in B?, two horns in E?, and one bass trombone. They are important works for brass in that they are some of the earliest pieces of brass chamber music existing; with Anton Simon?s Quartuor en forme de sonatine, Alexander Glazinov?s In modo religioso and Wilhelm Rams�e?s five Quartets they remain some of the handful of original brass works from the nineteenth century. This edition is taken from the first version published by A. B�ttner of St. Petersburg, Russia. In order to make it more accessible for a modern brass quintet the second horn part is transposed for trombone, and the lowest part may be performed on either tuba or bass trombone. I have tried to resolve the many contradictions in articulations found in the original score while keeping this edition as close to the original as possible. Many brass players may be unfamiliar with the complete version of this piece; I encourage them to perform the entire work as Maurer originally intended.
