This arrangement of the African American spiritual “Deep River” focuses on the peaceful nature of the song set in an easy ballad rock feel.

The Mini Band Series is designed for small Brass or Concert Bands comprising of more than 5 players. While focused more as a band series, the series will also work with quintets and sextets of various instrumentations. Soprano and Bass Trombone parts are included for larger ensembles but are cued or doubled in other parts when the part is important. Percussion is written for a section of two percussionists, but each arrangement is playable without percussion. Alternate parts for Woodwinds, French Horns, String/Electric Bass and Bass Clef lower brass have been included for greater flexibility and accessibility.
