Same piece arranged for brass quintet. Samuel Webbe's hymn tune, CONSOLATOR, is about 200 years old now, but it is still fresh and moving. The common lyrics are by Thomas Moore (Stanzas 1 and 2) and Thomas Hastings (stanza 3). It seems at once to be both a communion hymn and a funeral hymn, with its description of heaven and its consolation theme. The hymn tune is played through three times, first with the tenor trombone in the lead in Eb, then with the second trumpet in the lead in concert G, then with the first trumpet in the lead in concert Db. This was done as much for texture change as for playing range. You will definitely need a bass trombone for this one. + + + Come, ye disconsolate, where e're ye languish, Come to the mercy seat, fervently kneel. Here bring your wounded hearts, here bring your anguish, Earth has no sorrow that heaven cannot heal. Joy of the desolate, light of the straying, Hope of the penitent, fadeless and pure! Here speaks the comforter, tenderly saying, "Earth has no sorrow, that heaven cannot cure." Here see the bread of life, see the waters flowing Forth from the throne of God, pure from above; Come to the feast of love-- come ever knowing Earth has no sorrow but heaven can remove. + + + COME, YE DISCONSOLATE, a hymn tune by Samuel Webbe, arranged by Tom Kirkland for brass quartet consisting of two trumpets, tenor trombone, and bass trombone, comes in a pdf file of 736k, with a four-page score, four two-page parts, and a license page, thirteen pages in all. Performance time should be just under three minutes. MIDI sound sample: entire piece. |

A customer commented: "This was a first for me: downloading a book instead of buying it in paper form. The cost of the book in this format was less than many firms charge for shipping an item. I had not a single glitch and I would buy another book in this format with no reservations. Tributek did a good job." Another customer commented: "I would like to compliment you on the ease of purchasing music on-line. I require the music for a wedding in a couple of weeks, and didn't want to wait for music to be sent in the mail. It was great to be able to hear the music and to know the length of the PDF file and performance time." Another customer writes: "I bought some choral music off your site. It's great. I hope we can do all of it in our church. I don't know how you can sell it so cheap. It's a great service you offer."
