Product Description

An 19th century English hymnwriter took a 13th century Easter tune he found in a 16th century Finnish song collection and turned it into a tribute to a legendary 10th century Bohemian nobleman. ("Bohemia" today is in the Czech Republic.) Turns out Wenceslas, around whom a cult developed in his native land and, inexplicably, in England, wasn't really a king, so Holy Roman Emperor Otto made him an honorary one after his death, since he was sunch a king of a guy.
All that notwithstanding, it's still a pretty good Christmas carol for a brass quintet.
If you need alternative instrumentation, I'm happy to help. Contact me at wilcor@aol.com.
