Product Description

This is an arrangement of Stephen Foster's gentle lullaby "Slumber My Darling." It is a simple, peaceful melody that arranges well for musicians to play. This is an Easy+ arrangement for adaptable wind quintet. It can be accomplished by various combinations of instruments: Brass Quintet Woodwind Quintet Mix matched brass and woodwinds Saxophone Quintet Full Band (as a flexible arrangement type) It is very much an Americana tune, folk music that shows the slowly setting sun on a beautiful landscape (see thumbnail for Youtube video!). This is a great chance to teach LEGATO style to young musicians in a full ensemble, but especially CHAMBER MUSIC setting. Letting them take some artistic liberties with tempo, dynamics, etc. I kept it in comfortable ranges so that young players can focus on the musicianship. Of course, it is also great for mature players as well... audiences will love this one.
