Detailed Description

By Various Artists. By Oscar Hammerstein and Richard Rodgers. Arranged by Will Corbin. Broadway,Musical/Show. 18 pages. Will Corbin #1039612. Published by Will Corbin (A0.1460706).No, it's not the Austrian national anthem, although anyone who has seen "The Sound Of Music" thinks so. (For that reason, most Austrians are merely mildly aggravated by what is otherwise a lovely tune.) The tiny edelweiss (it means "noble white") flower is indeed a prominent symbol of Austria, present on many things Austrian you would find in any souvenir store across the country. "Edelweiss" was a late addition to the "Sound Of Music" score; Richard Rodgers thought Capt. Von Trapp needed a song to sing to his country as he fled the Nazis. It was also the last song of the Rodgers and Hammerstein collaboration before Hammerstein died. This arrangement features an echoic "yodeling" at beginning and end. It's scored for two trumpets, horn, baritone TC (trombone is more forceful than necessary, although I've included the part with this package) and tuba.
