Give Me Jesus (brass sextet)

In the course of serving in church music, from time to time a somewhat unusual combination of instruments will present itself and pose something of an arranging challenge. The particular group that sparked this arrangement was three trumpets, flugelhorn, tenor trombone, and bass trombone.

Give Me Jesus is an old favorite currently finding favor as a worship song in churches with contemporary worship styles, and has been sung and played in many styles, but my personal favorite arrangement had always been the choir arrangement by Larry L. Fleming. That arrangement strongly influenced the style of this arrangement.

There are six instrumental parts. Trumpet 1, Trumpet 2, Trumpet 3, Flugelhorn, Trombone, and Bass Trombone. Two alternate parts are included, French Horn 1 (substitute for Flugelhorn) and French Horn 2 (substitute for Trumpet 3). If only one french horn is used, it is strongly suggested it substitute for the flugelhorn.

There is no easy way around the bass trombone. The part is too high in many spots for a tuba, and much too low in others for a tenor trombone or a baritone/euphonium.

Check out the same piece for 11-voice brass band.

GIVE ME JESUS, a traditional spiritual arranged by Tom Kirkland for brass sextet consisting of either three trumpets, flugelhorn, trombone, and bass trombone, or two trumpets, two french horns, trombone, and bass trombone, comes in a pdf file of 1001K, with a six-page score, eight two-page parts, and a license page, twenty-three pages in all. Performance time should be about three minutes.

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."
