At Calvary
$9.95
SMS: Brass quartet for two trumpets and two trombones (opt horn and BHTC). The opening section follows very much the manner of the original hymn with harmonic counterpoint to add interest. With a brief modulation the piece goes into a more solemn style reminiscent of the opening section. The third section is in a march style leading into the final section which establishes a sense of conclusion.
