Sacred Band Music
All Levels
Abide with Me—arr. Jay Dawson. Creative
as always, master arranger Jay Dawson
brings a new element to this beloved hymn.
Interspersed with the lovely melody are the
subtle and compelling bugle calls of Last
Post, the British equivalent of Taps. This
hauntingly beautiful addition brings a unique
and emotional mood to the overall effect.
10016000 Band Set & Score . . . M 75.00
All Creatures—arr. Keith Andrews. Three
familiar hymn tunes create a powerful work
of rich and powerful musical moments.
The opening fanfare leads into a mixed-
meter setting of All Creatures of Our God
and King. Next, The Old 100th is heard
in the middle instruments, the horns and
saxes. Finally, the melody to Thomas Tallis'
Canon is heard in the chimes, followed by
an extended crescendo into a full ensemble
chorale setting.
11201799 Band Set & Score . . . M 85.00
Be Thou My Vision—arr. Larry Clark.
Presented as a set of variations, this
glorious arrangement of the Irish hymn
is a gorgeous selection for any concert
or contest. A Celtic feel is maintained
throughout, heard as bagpipe drones and
as a lively jig. The broad, full ending is sure
to leave a lasting impression. Beautiful!

is the basis for this moving and musical

Come, Thou Fount of Every Blessing—
arr. Randall D. Standridge. Standridge
has arranged this reverent and somewhat
sad-sounding hymn in honor of the life and
influence of his grandmother, who passed
away in 2012. Moving from moments of
quiet beauty though hugely magnificent
waves of sound, this compelling piece is
a great example of the expressiveness
and power that can be achieved by a fine
concert band work. The final statement of
the melody by a solo clarinet wraps up this
memorable hymn-tune arrangement in a
reverent, quiet way.
