Product Description

Brent Violini Pierces arrangement of "Nearer My God to Thee" for concert band is a poignant and beautifully scored piece that captures the emotional depth of this timeless hymn. Famously associated with the tragic story of the Titanic, where it is said to have been played by the ships band as it sank, this arrangement carries a sense of reverence and historical significance. Designed for first- or second-year bands, the music stays within a comfortable range for young musicians, making it accessible yet impactful. The percussion section is highlighted with mallet parts, offering an opportunity for percussionists to develop their note-reading skills while contributing to the ensemble's harmonic texture. Ideal as a warm-up chorale or a reflective performance piece, this arrangement allows students to connect with history and musical expression in a meaningful way.
