Austere and noble, the hymn tune THE MORNING TRUMPET is from The Sacred Harp, 1844. The composer has crafted an unusual setting for SATB and Brass Quintet. The voice parts are very accessible for any size choir and always take center stage (for example, the piece begins with unison men a cappella, not the usual choice in a piece with brass quintet). The text looks forward to the time when we transcend death to be with Jesus. Your choir will have fun singing the recurring refrain O shout glory, glory!

Notes to the Conductor This adaptation of Christmas Carol Trilogy was arranged to accompany the choral arrangement of the same title by Russell Robinson. It can be played with Robinson's vocal arrangements with band and chorus together or as a stand-alone piece for band. If performed together with a chorus, it is recommended that the performers play one to two dynamic levels lower than written (depending on the size of the chorus) so as not to overpower the singers. Please see the chart below for further explanation.   Written Dynamic (To be used if band alone) Large Chorus (1 dynamic lower) Small Chorus (2 dynamics lower) mf f ff mp mf f   p mp mf     Another possibility for performance is for a small group of wind instruments with chorus. Here, performers would play the written dynamics. Below are a few recommended chamber ensembles that would work with a variety of choruses, though there are several other alternatives.

An easy but striking congregational hymn setting of the tune RUSTINGTON to a text by Shirley Erena Murray. Stanzas one and three are in unison (three with descanting ahs). Stanza two invites the choir and even the congregation to sing in four parts! This can be as streamlined as you need it to be, but can also expand by use of the optional Brass Quintet, Handbells, Timpani, and Crash Cymbals.
