Instrument: flexible brass in 4 parts inc score

This set includes additional parts for horn in Eb, trombone in treble clef and Eb bass.

Southern Comfort is a selection of five 4-part arrangements of spirituals for brass players embarking on ensemble work. The pieces are not hard and the parts do not have a wide range thereby allowing plenty of instrumental interchangeability in the lower three voices where parts for Eb, F, C and Bb instruments are provided as appropriate.
