This arrangement follows the structure of the Beach Boys' song faithfully, making the necessary adjustments to create the best sound for brass quintet throughout. Suitable for intermediate players and above. The arrangement swings throughout, as does the original song, so players need to know how to swing the figures (or be willing to learn how!). Duration: 2 minutes, 25 seconds.

"Wouldn't It Be Nice" is a song written by Brian Wilson, Tony Asher, and Mike Love for American rock band the Beach Boys, released as the opening track on their 1966 album Pet Sounds. The song was also released as a single two months after the album's release with "God Only Knows" as its B-side.[3] In other countries, the sides were flipped, with "Wouldn't It Be Nice" as the single's B-side. Its lyrics describe a couple in love lamenting about being too young to run off to get married, fantasizing about how nice it would be if they were adults. Arranged for standard brass quintet of 2 trumpets, horn, trombone and tuba. The melody is shared between trumpet 1 and trombone /horn (in the bridge section) Enjoy!

"God Only Knows" is a song written by Brian Wilson and Tony Asher for American rock band the Beach Boys, released in May 1966 as the eighth track on the group's album Pet Sounds. Two months later, it was released as the B-side of "Wouldn't It Be Nice" in the United States. In other countries, "God Only Knows" was the single's A-side. It is arranged for horn quartet. The melody is given to 2nd horn for the first verse, and split amongst all 4 for the rest of the song. Transposed into F to aid the horn player. An additional tuba part is included as an alternative to the 4th horn part. (Also available for horn quartet) Check out my other Beach Boys arrangements: California Girls for brass and sax quintet.
