Description
Concert Band - Grade 2.5
SKU: AP.98-B1866
Composed by Brian Balmages. Concert Band. FJH Young Band. Score and Part(s). The FJH Music Company Inc #98-B1866. Published by The FJH Music Company Inc (AP.98-B1866).English.
Based on the hymn Guide Me, O Thou Great Redeemer, this heartfelt work begins delicately, relying on fragments of the hymn. Overlapping entrances establish a sense of timelessness as the music develops, ultimately reaching a powerful climax where the piece's original melody and the full hymn tune are presented simultaneously. As the music fades, the listener is left with a sense of peace and closure. Simply magical.
About FJH Young Band
Appropriate for middle school and smaller high school groups. Second clarinets usually stay below the break. Parts are written with more independence, and instrumentation increases slightly. There is still adequate doubling in the lower voices. Grades 2 - 2.5
