From
'The Childhood of
Christ'. Composed by
Geoffrey Brand. Arranged
by Geoffrey Brand. Band
Music. Score only.
Duration 5:15. Published
by G & M Brand Music
Publishers (CN.S11260).
Geoffrey
Brand's arrangement of
Berlioz's Shepherds'
Farewell form L'Enfance
du Christ is restrained,
delicate, and
contemplative. In this
arrangement for small
wind orchestra, the
instruments are called
upon to display their
softer persuasive sounds
in order to retain the
sensitive nature of this
tender
music.
L'Enfance
du Christ (The Childhood
of Christ), written
between 1850 and 1854, is
the nearest that Berlioz
got to writing an
oratorio. It is in three
parts; he called it a
'sacred trilogy.'
Throughout, the music is
restrained, delicate, and
contemplative. In its
original version, The
Shepherds' Farewell is
scored for chorus
accompanied by two oboes,
two clarinets, and
strings. With these
selected colors, Berlioz
achieves a masterpiece of
delicacy and serenity. In
this arrangement for
small wind orchestra
without chorus, the wind
instruments are called
upon to display their
softer persuasive sounds
in order to retain the
sensitive nature of this
tender music. This
arrangement may be used
with chorus utilizing the
original chorus parts.
The key is one half tone
lower than the original
setting.

About the
WorkThe text of this work
is most often attributed
to Ralph Waldo Emerson,
although it doesn't
mirror his style, and no
research credits an
essay, book or letter
with its source. Other
individuals are
occasionally suggested as
possible authors, but
equally unsubstantiated.
Even whether the textis a
poem or a quote seems
unclear. But there is one
thing that is without
question: that this
beloved text has inspired
countless people and
contributed toward a view
of the world through eyes
of hope, resilience,
courage, beauty, and joy.
Music for this text
flowed more easily than
about any text I have
ever set. It has an
emotional connection that
is mystical, and after I
read it for the first
time, I immediately sat
down and wrote this work
without stop.Rehearsal
NotesIn many cases, art
is more expressive and
reaches a wider range of
human emotions when
multiple artistic fields
are fused together. Such
is the case with choral
music: the intertwining
of literature, music, and
very often dance, visual
arts, and more. The story
in choral music is often
quite specific, much like
film scoring. At times,
the music is the picture
frame (score) around the
picture (text), while at
others the music is the
leading
dramatic/emotional
impetus.In the present
case (My Farewell Wish),
the text is sincere,
innocent, heartfelt, and
earnest. By all accounts,
the message is
altruistic, expressing
selfless desire for
another's present/future
happiness. Capturing this
message has a strong
reliance on the
performers to not only
carry the emotional
intent of the moment (a
phrase of text or a
measure), but the the
energy and continuance of
the message
throughout.The use of the
[o] vowel functions
almost as instrumental
interludes or
underpinning of strings.
The conductor may use the
[o] as indicated in the
score, or a [u] vowel, a
hum (with [o] as the
vowel inside the mouth),
or all three at different
times for different
reasons. In an acoustical
performance (no mic), the
soloist and the ensemble
are a reflection of each
other's natural sound.
And, even gentle, warm
solo voices should have
no trouble projecting.Two
final thoughts: 1) the
obbligato or added voice
or two on high passages
(m. 66) or a single note
(final chord) will be
best delivered by
lyrical, pure voices with
demonstrated control; and
2) the metronome marking
of 80 bpm (mm.
1–81) was strongly
considered and should be
followed.About the

Than
ks to a stipend from his
patron, the Landgrave
Moritz von Hessen-Kassel,
Schutz was able to pursue
a three-year period of
study under Giovanni
Gabrieli in Venice from
1609 to 1612, which he
concluded with the
publication in 1611 of
the madrigal collection
Il Primo Libro de
Madrigali. Already in
this, his Opus primus,
Schutz emerged as an
outstanding composer: In
their musical quality,
the 18 five-part
madrigals exceed much
that was still being
composed in the
traditional madrigal
style at the beginnning
of the 17th century.
