New music from our newest composer/arranger - please welcome William Allen Pasch!

Tuba Diversions a l'Amadeus (William Allen Pasch). The tuba (Latin for “trumpet”) as we know it today did not exist in Mozart’s time, but this piece identifies themes from the witty composer’s works that he might have delighted in hearing the modern tuba play if it had been available. The samplings are (in order) the “Tuba mirum” from the Requiem; the piano variations on “Ah vous dirai-je maman”; the aria “O Isis und Osiris” from The Magic Flute; and the “Alla Turca” final (rondo) movement from the Piano Sonata in A (K331).

Tarantella (Camille Saint-Saens, arr. Chris Savage). Composed in 1857 and originally scored for flute, clarinet, and piano, this lively Tarantella has been reimagined for the brass quintet by Chris Savage.

New Christmas and holiday brass quintets from Jamescliff Music Publishing! www.jamescliffmusic.com

A la Nanita Nana (Jose Ramos Gomis, arr. Chris Savage)
https://www.jamescliffmusic.com/product/a-la-nanita-nana/
Composed in 1904 with lyrics by Juan Francisco Munoz y Pabon, A la Nanita Nana is a traditional Christmas carol and popular lullaby. This arrangement is well suited for a concert, prelude, or reverential service setting.

It Came Upon the Midnight Clear (Richard S. Willis, arr. Chris Savage)
https://www.jamescliffmusic.com/product/it-came-upon-the-midnight-clear/
Edmund Sears wrote the poem “It Came Upon the Midnight Clear” in Wayland, Massachusetts in 1849. The following year, he commissioned Richard S. Willis, a former student of Felix Mendelssohn, to set the poem to a melody. The melody, originally titled “Carol”, became popular throughout the United States. This setting for brass quintet reimagines the famous melody as a swing arrangement.

Sleep, Holy Babe! (John Bacchus D***s, arr. Chris Savage)
https://www.jamescliffmusic.com/product/sleep-holy-babe/
Combining the Victorian Christmas hymn Sleep, Holy Babe! Upon Thy mother’s breast by John Bacchus D***s with James Ramsey Murray’s famous setting of Away in a Manger, this arrangement for brass quintet is an excellent choice for a prelude or reflective musical offering during Advent and Christmas.

Sugar Plum (Tchaikovsky, arr. Taylor Helms)
https://www.jamescliffmusic.com/product/sugar-plum/
This swing version of Tchaikovsky’s “Dance of the Sugar Plum Fairy” from The Nutcracker is sure to be an audience favorite! Changes are provided for improvised trumpet and trombone solos.

Something new from Jamescliff Music Publishing!

Sing We Now of Christmas (French Carol, arr. Chris Savage) for Piano, Four Hands.
https://www.jamescliffmusic.com/product/sing-we-now-four-hands/

This familiar carol was written in the 15th century in France, where it is known as Noel Nouvelet. Translated into English in the 17th or 18th century, the tune remains popular as a Christmas or New Year’s carol. Based on his setting for brass quintet, Savage’s four-hand piano arrangement features both players and incorporates quotations from God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen and We Three Kings.

More new brass quintet arrangements from Jamescliff Music!

House of the Rising Sun (Traditional, arr. Taylor Helms). This arrangement presents the tune in a slow blues style before transitioning to a lively tango. Scored for flugelhorn, trumpet, horn, trombone, and tuba, each member of the quintet is featured.

That's a Plenty (Lew Pollack, arr. William G. Rose). Originally written by Lew Pollack in 1914 and arranged by William G. Rose, That’s a Plenty is a “burner” – a fast piece in New Orleans style, appropriate for the opening or closing of a typical brass quintet concert. This arrangement has written jazz solos in the Trumpet 1 and Trombone parts, and chord changes are included for performers to perform improvised solos in those sections if they desire. Also included is an optional Piccolo Trumpet part (to sub for Trumpet 1). The arrangement is dedicated to Dr. Michael Ewald.

March to the Scaffold (Hector Berlioz, arr. Taylor Helms). This arrangement of “March to the Scaffold” from Berlioz’s programmatic Symphonie fantastique works brilliantly as a dramatic and educational concert piece.

An Itsy Bitsy Tarantella (Taylor Helms). This lively tarantella is based on the popular nursery rhyme tune, The Itsy Bitsy Spider, but is entertaining for audiences of children and adults alike!

Sugar Plum (Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky, arr. Taylor Helms). Classical Christmas tune turned swing, this arrangement is sure to be an audience favorite! Changes are provided for improvised trumpet and trombone solos.
