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.

For 4 violoncellos. Composed by Arpad Peijtsik. EMB Chamber Music for Violoncellos. Educational Tool. Set (Score & Parts). Composed 2010. 50 pages. Editio Musica Budapest #EMBZ14728. Published by Editio Musica Budapest (BT.EMBZ14728).

Volume 12 in the series contains works by great composers adapted for four cellos. They all share a festive mood. Beethoven's variations on the theme of the British nation anthem 'God Save the King' are followed by 'The Shepherds' Farewell' from Berlioz' oratorio The Childhood of Christ, and three Christmas pieces by Mendelssohn. The excerpt from Wagner's Parsifal - excellently transcribed by Hermann Jacobowsky at the end of the 19th century - is associated with Good Friday, but because of its sacred character its mood blends with that of the preceding pieces.

4. Wagner, Richard - Jacobowsky, Hermann: Aus dem Parsifal

Im zwölften Band werden für Cello bearbeitete Werke von großen Meistern publiziert. Gemeinsam ist ihnen ihre feierliche Stimmung. Den Beethoven-Variationen auf das Thema der britischen Hymne ‚God save the King' folgen der ‚Abschiedsgesang der Hirten' aus dem Oratorium ‚Des Heilands Kindheit' von Berlioz und drei Weihnachtsstücke Mendelssohns. Der Ausschnitt aus Wagners Parsifal - in der hervorragenden Hermann Jacobowsky- Transkription vom Ende des 19. Jahrhunderts - ist mit dem Karfreitag verbunden, seine Stimmung passt jedoch durch seinen sakralen Charakter zu den vorherigen Stücken.
