Publisher Desc.  This arrangement for brass quintet begins by developing the typical emotional feeling of peaceful longing consistent with verse one of the original lyrics. It then turns celebratory consistent with verse two - "We shall sing on that beautiful shore!" The piece climaxes with an emphatic refrain and coda which underscore the forthcoming celebration - "When we shall meet on that beautiful shore!" An optional tambourine can be used effectively to add to this celebratory style. Alternate instrumentation is provided consisting of Alto Sax (for F Horn), Tenor Sax (for Trombone), Trombone or Bass Guitar (for Tuba). An alternate ensemble consisting of saxophones and a bass guitar with two trumpets creates an exciting and unique musical texture.
