One of the most universally beloved and recognized melodies, Johannes Brahms' "Lullaby" has been arranged for first year bands by Andrew Glover as "Slumber Song." This flowing melody is passed throughout the ensemble, and mallet percussion provide a gentle accompaniment to this timeless melody. An excellent vehicle for phrasing, tone development, blend, and balance. Lyrical music for beginning band at its very best!
