Past USArmy Tuba/Euph conf.

Post by Rick F »

Does anyone remember the name of the hymn that was played as part of Brian Bowman's tribute to Harold Brasch a couple of years ago? This piece was played by 4 euph's... Brian Bowman, Roger Behrend, Joe Dollard, (forgot the 4th player - sorry).

I'm hoping to find this arrangement. Thanks.

Hey Rick,

I don't remember a hymn that 4 euphs played in that Brasch tribute, but I do distinctly remember Bowman playing the "Bless this House" hymn that can be found on his "Sacred Euphonium" CD. I'd love to be able to find an arrangement of that to play in church.

Hi Scott,

Yes, I've played, "Bless This House" a few times in church. I bought the arr for voice in concert Eb. Since I play treble clef anyway, I just read it up a step. It's by May Brahe (music) and Helen Taylor (words) if that helps.

At the very end of Brian Bowman's tribute to Harold Brasch, 4 euphs played this hymn. It was beautiful (unaccompanied). I suppose I could listen to the archive'd program again on the Army's website, but the program is almost an hour long - and no way to fast forward Quicktime stream. It would take awhile. I was hoping someone here might remember the piece and/or the arranger.

Thanks.
