An arrangement of the national anthem of Pakistan for Brass Quintet.Shortly before independence, an interim anthem hastily written by Jagnnath Azad, a Hindu, was put into use at the time of Pakistan?s independence in August, 1947. Then in December, 1948, a committee to select a national anthem for Pakistan was formed. A member of the committee, Ahmed Ghulamali Chagla, was asked to produce a composition. Mr. Chagla?s background in music involves study in both western and eastern music, and characteristics of eastern music can be found in the anthem.After some ?test runs? which included performances for the Prime Minister, for a visiting head of state, for the Prime Minister?s visit to the United States, and finally for the committee itself, it was then approved by the anthem committee in August 1950 and gained official recognition in December 1953. The words, written in a highly Persianized form of the national language, Urdu, were composed by another member of the committee and officially approved in August 1954. The anthem is sometimes referred to by its first line (?Pak sarzamin shad bad? (Blessed Be The Sacred Land).For more of my original music, great arrangements and all the national anthems of the world, check out my on-line stores:http://www.scoreexchange.com/profiles/keith_terrethttp://musicforalloccasions.org.ukhttp://www.sheetmusicplus.com/search?Ntt=keith terrettNeed an anthem fast?

This arrangement contains two choruses with varied instrumentation and styles. Arranged by award-winning composer/arranger Sy Brandon.

This delightful minuet written by Mozart in 1791 perfectly captures the fun of a traditional sleigh ride. It makes a great addition to any Christmas or winter seasonal concert. To help brass players achieve the delicate touch required, this arrangement is transposed from the original C Major to Bb Major. As a result, the 1st trumpet part lies very well on Eb trumpet. An alternative part for piccolo trumpet in Bb is provided. There is also an optional part for sleigh bells; bring along an auxiliary percussionist, or ask an audience member to volunteer! Performance time is approx. 3 minutes.

This is a grand, pompous arrangement of Joy To The World which has elements of fanfares, semiquaver/sixteenths passages and a large ending. It would sound excellent in a church, cathedral or other such venue but would also fit well into any other Christmas concert as well, possibly as the opening number.

An arrangement of the national anthem of Cambodia for Brass Quintet."Nokor Reach" (Khmer: ????????; Royal Kingdom or Majestic Kingdom) is the national anthem of the Kingdom of Cambodia. It was based on a Cambodian folk tune and written by Chuon Nath, the anthem was originally adopted in 1941 and reconfirmed in 1947, around the time of independence from France. In 1970, the monarchy was abolished, thereby replacing the anthem as well. After the communist victory in 1975, former royalist symbols, including "Nokor Reach", were reinstated for a short while. The Khmer Rouge then replaced it with Dap Prampi Mesa Chokchey ("Glorious Seventeenth of April"). After the royalist party FUNCINPEC defeated the former communists (Cambodian People's Party) in the 1993 elections, the royalist anthem was restored.For more of my original music, great arrangements and all the national anthems of the world, check out my on-line stores:http://www.scoreexchange.com/profiles/keith_terrethttp://musicforalloccasions.org.ukhttp://www.sheetmusicplus.com/search?Ntt=keith terrettNeed an anthem fast?
