Chamber,Classical,Multicultural,World. 13 pages. Joel William Music #851334. Published by Joel William Music (A0.1258104). Lua Branca (or White Moon in English) is one of the more well-known works by virtuosic Brazilian composer Francisca Chiquinha Gonzaga. This arrangement showcases the power in her typically gentle and somber melody.  Beginner brass quintets should have no problem with the ranges demanded by this arrangement. The instrumentation is also very flexible, allowing for atypical brass quintet rosters such as Trumpet/Trumpet/Trombone/Euphonium/Tuba or Trumpet/French Horn/French Horn/Trombone/Bass Trombone, etc.  This arrangement features great dynamic contrast, as well as the use of pedal point as a musical technique to add tension and direction. Definitely consider adding this to your repertoir to broaden your ensembles horizons. Enjoy! Â
