Description
SKU: WA.60404
Arranged by Gerhard Guter. Little Big Band Charts. Score and parts. Published by Walrus Music Publishing (WA.60404).Also known as "Mine Eyes Have Seen the Glory," and "Glory Hallelujah," this extremely popular American patriotic song makes a return for your little big band. This ballad treatment is reminiscent of Neal Hefti's classic arrangements for the Count Basie Orchestra. A moderate lead trumpet range, fully notated bass part, and ample 16-bar blues form solo opportunities in both the tenor sax and optional guitar parts contribute to its accessibility. Flugelhorns are optional and muted shadings add to the orchestration's color. From a rousing shout chorus emerges a reflective conclusion. With a few improvised solo choruses, "Battle Hymn of the Republic" weighs in at five to six minutes. A/T/B/2 Trpt/1 Bone/P/B/D/G. Trpt. range A5.Medium.
