About this arrangement

Grade 4 SKU: CL.CTS-7711-01 Chorale - Prelude. Composed by Claude T. Smith. Concert Band. Extra full score. Composed 1974. Claude T. Smith Publications #CTS-7711-01. Published by Claude T. Smith Publications (CL.CTS-7711-01). This has become a staple of band literature. Claude Smith is well known for taking hymn tunes and creating wonderful pieces of music. Trumpet and trombone trios are featured in the opening statement, followed by free-flowing Rubato flute solo. A piccolo and bassoon duet follow in the next section. Variations of the theme appear in the fugato section, followed by the full chorale. The audience may sing the hymn tune during the full chorale. The triumphant ending features the horn section which leads to an emotional finale. "God of Our Fathers" is also available for full orchestra, and an edition for SATB Choir with piano/organ, which may be used in a massed band/orchestra/choir setting as well. An audience favorite and one of Smith’s most popular works.
