The words of this very popular hymn were composed in 1845 by William Walford, a blind preacher in Warwickshire, England, who dictated them to a friend. New England organist/composer William Bradbury set the words to music in 1861. This setting for unaccompanied three-part women's chorus with flute obligato is suitable for either a worship setting or concert performance. The harmonies and voice-leading are straightforward, and the ranges are moderate. Singers and audiences alike will enjoy this simple, reverent rendition of a favorite 19th Century hymn.

<p>Give your horn players a chance to be part of the annual Christmas celebration with this setting of three traditional carols for horn solo with piano accompaniment. The three selections: "Infant Holy" (Poland), "The First Noel" (England), and "O Come All Ye Faithful" (Latin plainsong) are staples of the season. The arrangements are specifically designed with the young horn player in mind. The keys used are Bb and Eb Major (F and Bb for the horn), and the written horn ranges extend from C one line below the staff to D on the fourth line of the staff. The piano accompaniments are light in texture to allow the horn solo to shine through without forcing the tone.</p>

Three Christmas Carols for Horn and Piano

Horn in F Solo Collection with Piano

This brief composition for solo French Horn with piano accompaniment is very accessible for young horn players. It was first performed by an 8th grade soloist. It uses the keys of G major and E minor (for the horn), and the horn range extends from B two spaces below the staff to E on the fourth space. There are a few sixteenth note passages (scale-wise at a tempo of quarter note = 98). The simple A-B-A form will be appealing to young players. This piece will be a good vehicle to introduce your young horn students to solo playing.

Two Songs for Horn and Piano

Horn in F Solo with Piano

Give the men in your church choir or school chorus an opportunity to feature their voices with this straight-forward setting of a very familiar tune and Charles Wesley's wonderful lyrics. The lowest note for the bass is G on the bottom line of the bass clef, and the first tenor goes to an A one line above the tenor clef.

Love Divine, All Loves Excelling

TTBB Octavo

Choirs of any size can enjoy this simple, reverent paraphrase of one of the most well-known verses in the New Testament. The setting is accessible for smaller choirs or youth choirs, but will also sound great with larger groups. The beginning and ending refrains use a modal feel (in the key of E minor, natural form), while the verses in the middle are in G major. An optional part for acoustic guitar is provided to be used in lieu of the piano accompaniment.

Honor the Gentle Among You

SATB Octavo

Schubert was a precocious 16-year-old when he composed these pieces for unaccompanied male voices at the Imperial Seminary in Vienna. This arrangement will challenge your high-school trombone players, especially with regard to the range of the Trombone 1 part (Ab above the staff), and the transition to the key of Concert D in the final movement. However, the music is glorious, and 21st Century students will enjoy the challenge of the technical demands of the score. Alternate low-brass parts (Horns doubling Trombones 1 and 2, Baritone T.C. and Tuba doubling Trombone 3) are provided for flexibility in the make-up of the performing ensemble.

Songs for Three Male Voices

Trombone Ensemble

16th Century Italian master Giovanni Palestrina originally composed these short pieces for three solo voices (two sopranos and an alto). This setting for two trumpets and horn provides a wonderful introduction for your advanced brass players to the joys of performing Renaissance counterpoint. The keys and ranges make these arrangements somewhat challenging for high school musicians, but the rewards of the music justify the extra effort. Movements II. and III. are suitable be played as a Prelude to a worship service.

Three Renaissance Airs

Brass Trio

This brief selection for first or second-year bands will get your concert off to a great start. There are lots of full ensemble passages to make your group sound their best. The melodies are based on the five-tone pentatonic scale, and the harmonies are very tonal.
