Classic Tunes for Brass Ensembles

Bach Minuet in G (arranged in Eb)

This is an arrangement of Bach's Minuet in G from Anna Magdalena's Notebook for Brass Quintet. To make it more playable for younger players, it has been put in the key of Eb. It is a very straightforward arrangement and should be easily achievable by young players, where more advanced players will be able to do more with the musicality. Enjoy!

Auld Lang Syne

This is a brass quintet arrangement of the traditional Auld Lang Syne (the New Year's song). The arrangement is fairly easy and can be handled by younger players, but would definitely be best with high school or up. If you need a straight up arrangement of ONLY the tune, start at m. 24 and it plays the tune. The first half is broken up and instruments pass off melodic and harmonic content to make a more creative and full arrangement of the tune. Happy New Year!
