Product Description

In 1853, still grieving for his three-year-old daughter's passing from brain ramollissement, the words of Scottish cleric Henry Lyte's hymn - Abide with me - came to English choirmaster William Monk's mind.  Although the hymn already had a tune, he was inspired by the thought of another and wrote the noble EVENTIDE within 10 minutes.   It was first published in 1861 in Hymns Ancient & Modern. 
It is performed at funerals, at Remembrance services, and even at sporting events (FA Cup).
This setting is in the key of Eb Major, the same as the Hymnals, permitting it to be used as an accompaniment to singing and on its own.  The instrumental leads and harmonies differ for verses 1/3, 2/4 and verse 5.
Instrumentation is for British Brass Band instruments of Cornet, Eb Tenor Horn, and Bb Euphonium (TC).  F Horn and Bass Clef Euphonium alternates are included.
Duration ~ 4:40  10 pages
