Product Description

For the Intermediate Violinist. 15 pages. Duration: 4 minutes. In the key of D Major.

First released as a single in 2012, "Brave" was included in Josh's sixth album, "All That Echoes" and included in the "All That Echoes" World Tour. Groban says the song is about about rejuvenation. It is an anthem in the style of "You Raise Me Up."

Josh Groban's musical style is often placed in the "classical" category, so it was perfectly natural to take this tune a step further and design it for recitals, seminars, recruiting tours, and for the advanced players in one's studio. Your accompanist will like the way the pizzicato rhythmic figures in the string section have been "fleshed out" with notes on strong beats to help make the rhythm "fit the hand" better and easier for you to stay with.

Arranged in the key of D major, this is an intermediate work for violins. While some technical challenges may cause concern in the middle section, everything keeps your fingers in comfortable positions on the neck. Most of your time will be spent on the middle pair of strings. You might take a look at this same arrangement of mine in the original key of E Major; even in that key, this is still an intermediate work. This is one of those times when nothing beats the songwriter's original key.

This would be a phenomenal closer for recitals or concerts. A great show-piece for social and civic events, its inspiring message would even serve in church-related functions. Keep your eye open for performance opportunities for social groups tackling issues like depression and self-image. As the song says, "Wake up, wake up! Reach out, reach out!"
