Silent Night - Brass Quintet

"Silent Night" (German: "Stille Nacht, heilige Nacht") was composed in 1818 by Franz Xaver Gruber to lyrics by Joseph Mohr, in the small town of Oberndorf bei Salzburg, Austria.

Instrumentation: 2 trumpets, horn in Eb, trombone and tuba. In the video I play the tuba part on my flugel down two octaves.

Will be looping while I roast a goose and all the trimmings. Will also listen to I am sorry I haven’t a clue (Goodies) esp the Christmas carol special with Linda Smith. Many thanks for getting me through 2020 Maeve

Wish you lived in our town - or even our country. Sweet as ever my dear, thank you...

Splendid work to all of you. Thank you.

Magnificent as always! There is a sublime beauty when Christmas hymns and carols are played by a brass ensemble, and you capture that spirit perfectly, Maeve. Wishing you a Merry Christmas and a Happy, Safe, and Healthy New Year in 2021.

PS: I loved the coda!

Hi Maeve, Merry Christmas. Can’t tell you how much you have helped me this year. Mind you nearly burned the spuds listening to this (and the back catalogue) Best Christmas ever

Arranging credit goes to Dr. George Ellwanger. I had previously posted a transposed version with some slight mods.

Such a wonderful sound and arrangement. Is the music available for purchase?
