George Frederic Handel wrote his most famous oratorio, Messiah, in
a little over three weeks. There is little doubt that this work is
one of the most famous and often performed choral pieces in
history. Handel conducted many performances in his day and there
never seemed to have been a period when the work was not played.
This version of the famous Hail the Conquering Hero opens with a
solo, gradually adds voices and builds in dynamic, then the sound
drops to a solo in the lowest part which starts the building again.
This arrangement from Water Music is approachable by a high school
level quintet. The Canadian Brass arrangement of this suite uses
piccolo trumpet extensively as well as range extremes in all parts.
This new suite is ideal for church services, weddings or any other
gigs. The movements include Minuet, Air, Allegro and Alla Hornpipe.
This was originally a soprano solo with strings. The solo line has
been entwined such that all players get a turn with the melody
while the other parts are in a supporting role. The scales and
arpeggios in this showpiece fit nicely under the fingers which
makes it sound harder than it is It has been scored here for 2
flutes and 2 clarinets.
