By Rita Arendz. By Nora Bayes-Norworth. Arranged by Rita Arendz. 20th Century,Broadway,Contest,Festival,Film/TV,Musical/Show,Traditional. Score and Parts. 18 pages. Rita Arendz #881478. Published by Rita Arendz (A0.1290783).With its debut in 1908 on Broadway in New York City, this pop standard from the Vaudeville show "Ziegfried's Follies" has been covered by such artists as Liza Minelli, Bing Crosby, and as late as 2017, by Indie folk singer Mree (Marie Hsiao).
Shine on Harvest Moon also has a long association with Hollywood films such as Shine on Harvest Moon (1932 animation), a Roy Rogers' western, Pennies from Heaven, and the British comedy show Shine on Harvey Moon. The song and dance duo of Laurel and Hardy also used the song.
This arrangement for Brass Sextet with optional percussion is a bit of a through back to the original setting, with a mix of the "campy" uptempo setting, then into the more melancholy style of someone scared of the dark, while their partner is trying to tell them, they are in love and should get married. For the conversation to occur, the moon must shine.
"Harvest Moon" refers to the Full Moon closest to the Autumnal Equinox (for 2023, which will be September 23rd).
Instrumentation is for British Brass Band ensemble of two cornets, tenor horn, tenor trombone TC, Bb Euphonium, and Eb Bass. Orchestral brass alternates are included.
Duration 3:45 18 pages.
