Product Description

An arrangement of the popular song, 'Softly As I Leave You', for brass quintet. It originated in 1960 in Italy and was called, 'Piano' (Italian for soft). Harold David Shaper discovered the song and added English lyrics in 1961. This song has been recorded by the British singer Matt Monro, Frank Sinatra, Andy Williams, Elvis Presley, Michael Bublé and many others.

After an introduction, the piece starts softly with the French Horn stating the melody with Trombone and Tuba accompanying. The two Trumpets join in and the whole ensemble builds gradually to a forte. The piece diminishes in volume and ends softly as it began. Your ensemble and your audiences will enjoy traveling back in time with this pop classic.

This arrangement is available for purchase at SheetMusicDirect.com and SheetMusicPlus.com.  See the link for the youtube video and sound for a more complete examination.
