Gospel music has infiltrated the New Orleans jazz repertoire since the very early days of jazz. Although gospel songs were traditionally played by jazz bands at funerals or church, it is now common that these songs are also played in secular venues. “Down by the Riverside� is an example of such a song, adapted by jazz musicians to fit the New Orleans jazz or brass band style. It has been a staple in New Orleans jazz since at least the early 1920s. This arrangement for Brass Quintet plus optional Acoustic Bass and Drum Set is written in the style of a New Orleans Brass Band, the kind of tune you might hear at a Second Line Parade or Jazz Funeral. Play this piece with the attitude: Laissez les bons temps rouler ( Let the good times roll ).   Performance Time: Approx. 2 minutes 40 seconds

Abide with MeThis arrangement will be useful to accompany congregational or choral singing (as it is in suitable keys) or it can be used as a purely instrumental piece.

Brass Ensemble - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.927014 Composed by Charles Johnson (1908). Arranged by Dr. Jim Fox. 20th Century,Folk,Ragtime,Traditional. Score and parts. 73 pages. All Brass Radio Publishing #3469858. Published by All Brass Radio Publishing (A0.927014). A fast two-step rag from 1908.  The melody travels from section to section.  As a two-step rag, it is written to go fast, about 132 bpm.  This would be a good concert in the park piece as it is flashy, and fun to play and listen to.  It has wonderful parts for every instrument in the brass band.  It is a finger twister, but once the band has it under its fingers, it shines as a rag written 110 years ago and captures the ragtime feel.  It is a bit on the difficult size and will take some rehearsal even for the top bands.  Once the piece is worked up, and has been polished under a fine MD, it becomes something wonderful and worth the extra effort.
