CHURCH MUSIC
In this series you’ll find music suited for the church or music of a sacral character.
John Brakstad is a famous Norwegian composer and arranger, known for his spiritual music. He has picked out 8 of his best arrangements of hymns which we have put together two and two in each edition.
If you want omething new for your church concert you may try the two melodies in this edition, then add more if you find it interesting. Even the Norwegian titles are often international hymns, which often comes from Europe or even USA. There are recorded demos on some of the tunes.

The Brass Band editions are organised like this:
1. 1301437 Mitt hjerte alltid vanker and Joy To The World
2. 1301439 Kling no klokka and Mary’s Boy Child
3. 1301441 Det lyser i stille grender and Rise Up Shepherd
4. 1301443 Na tennes tusen julelys and Adeste Fidelis

Mitt hjerte alltid vanker and Joy To The World
If you want to do more verses (let the congregation sing), you may change the arrangement
by playing one verse with reduced instrumentation.

The smallest instrumentation possible is:
Solo Cornet I Cornet I
Solo Horn
Horn 1 I Baritone I
Trombone I
Euphonium
Bass EbIBb

Do you need an easy Euphonium part, you may replace the original one with the less difficult Baritone 2.
Mitt hjerte alltid vanker
If you want to add one verse, repeat bars 5 to 21 one more time. Use a smaller ensemble.
Joy To The World
When multiple verses is used, please go to the l house until you finish the last verse.
