Instrumental parts included: Horn in F, Clarinet in Bb

Tune Name: Sparrow

Music Source: Charles Hutchinson Gabriel, 1856–1932

Difficulty Level: M

Description:

This meditative piece based on Matthew 6:26 and John 14:1, 27 employs the tender hymn tune sparrow. Scored for horn in F and organ, both parts begin in a quiet, thoughtful manner before soaring to a majestic climax and then returning to the opening mood. A substitute part for clarinet in B♭ is provided. If using clarinet, the dark, warm quality of the chalumeau register is perfect for the character of this piece. The setting for horn in F is recorded on Songs of Simple Faith by Sharon Moe at Marble Collegiate Church in New York.

Clarinet in B-flat can be substituted for Horn in F.
