Sheet Music for Cornet Ensemble and Brass Band
This arrangement was written for Chris Jaudes, trumpet soloist and The New York Staff Band for a recording project in 2005. The composition is based on the song "Colne".
It features a cornet section of six players, which includes Eb Soprano cornet and five Bb cornets. Accompaniment is made by two baritones, three trombones, two euphoniums, Eb & Bb tubas + three percussions
The main tune is introduced by the cornet section and written in a 3/4 jazz waltz style. As the piece develops, it moves out of 3/4 from time to time and expands on some of the rhythmic and melodic qualities of the original hymn tune.
