Down by the Riverside - Brass Quintet arranged in Trad. New Orleans Brass Band Style by Traditional Spiritual Brass Quintet - Digital Sheet Music
By Traditional Spiritual“Down by the Riverside”
Gospel music has infiltrated the New Orleans jazz repertoire since the very early days of jazz. Although gospel songs were traditionally played by jazz bands at funerals or church, it is now common that these songs are also played in secular venues. “Down by the Riverside” is an example of such a song, adapted by jazz musicians to fit the New Orleans jazz or brass band style. It has been a staple in New Orleans jazz since at least the early 1920s. This arrangement for Brass Quintet plus optional Acoustic Bass and Drum Set is written in the style of a New Orleans Brass Band, the kind of tune you might hear at a "Second Line Parade" or Jazz Funeral. Play this piece with the attitude: "Laissez les bons temps rouler" ( Let the good times roll ). Performance Time: Approx. 2 minutes 40 seconds
