This is the classic ballad by the Beach Boys.  Loved by millions of fans, this song, God Only Knows, is one of the few songs that reduces me to tears every time I hear it, as quoted by Paul McCartney. It's really just a love song, but it's brilliantly done. It shows the genius of Brian [Wilson].  

I hope you enjoy this arrangement for Brass Quintet with the Horn featured as the soloist.

By Queen. By Brian May. Arranged by Sarah Johnson. Rock. Score and parts. 2 pages. Sarah Johnson #4282277. Published by Sarah Johnson (A0.925026).

Queen's 'We Will Rock You.' Simplified version for beginning players. This duet uses only six notes (C – A), and the rhythm has been simplified from the original so that it is easy to play. The body percussion stamp stamp clap rhythm can continue throughout the piece by another player or an audience if desired. Part A and Part B take turns at playing the melody and accompaniment, giving both players an interesting part.

This duet is also available for other instruments all playing in Concert B-flat so that parts can be mixed with other instruments and in mixed instrumental group lessons. Other versions of this arrangement by Sarah Johnson are available on SMP for the following instruments: Trumpet/Clarinet, Trombone/Euphonium, Flute, Horn in F, Alto Saxophone/E-flat Tenor Horn. 

A great performance piece for beginning players. Recommended for students in their first year of learning.

Your Favorite Christmas Hymns and Carols for Brass, Book 1

Arranged for brass by Colin Kirkpatrick

Here’s a brand new collection of best-loved Christmas hymns and carols arranged for brass, to brighten up your next Christmas event. They are presented in a set of two books and include full four-part instrumental scores plus parts for 1st B flat trumpet, 2nd B flat trumpet, horn in F (with a separate optional part for horn in E flat), trombone and/or tuba. The tuba part is also optional because it either doubles the trombone part or plays an octave below. Both trombone and tuba parts appear on a single staff in the bass clef at concert pitch. The arrangements can be used with brass quartet, brass quintet or brass ensemble. There’s also an optional but useful simplified keyboard part intended for less experienced keyboard players. The left hand plays only the bass part most of the time, with the right hand part kept as simple as possible. It could be used as the basis of an accompaniment which means that you can use the arrangements as solos, duets or trios.

The arrangements are intended either as stand-alone pieces that could be used as interludes in a concert or service, or they could be used to accompany solo, choral or congregational singing. The arrangements been written in brass-friendly keys as often as possible. While the hymns mostly use the traditional harmonies, the carols have been treated more freely.

Book 1 includes the following 19 titles: Angels from the Realms of Glory (Melody: Gloria); Away in a Manger (Melody: Mueller); Unto Us a Child Is Born (Melody: Puer Nobis); Christians Awake! (Melody: Yorkshire); Deck the Halls with Boughs of Holly (Melody: Nos Galan); Go Tell it on the Mountain; Good Christian Men, Rejoice (Melody: In Dulci Jubilo); Good King Wenceslas (Melody: Tempus Adest Floridum); I Saw Three Ships Come Sailing In; It Came Upon the Midnight Clear (Melody: Carol); Little Jesus, Sweetly Sleep (Melody: Rocking); O Christmas Tree (Melody: Tannenbaum); O Come all ye Faithful (Melody: Adeste Fidelis); O Little Town of Bethlehem (Melody: Saint Louis); O Holy Night (Melody: Cantique Noël); Silent Night (Melody: Stille Nacht); The Holly and the Ivy; We Wish You a Merry Christmas and What Child is This? (Melody: Greensleeves)

The audio samples include Go Tell it on the Mountain; O Christmas Tree; O Holy Night and Silent Night. Please note that the arrangements are usually not usually compatible with the string collection of the same name.
