NOT originally by Simon and Garfunkel, this tune goes back to a time uncertain. And that is how Bill Reichenbach can put his name on his arrangement. Well played Wolverines!
+ C'est très beau, un grand merci! O grand mystère, et admirable sacrement, que des animaux voient leur Seigneur nouveau-né, couché dans une mangeoire! Heureuse Vierge, dont le sein a mérité de porter le Christ Seigneur. Alleluia! fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/O_magnum_mysterium
I first sang this song as a junior in high school as past of my choir's spring concert. It has always been a favorite of mine, both to listen to and sing. It's so powerful in its reverence, so majestic in its simplicity. I have never heard this song performed by a brass instrument, let alone a whole group of them, but this was incredible! Thank you for sharing!
My brother played the trombone from age 8 to his death at 71. He taught and composed both, and I always think of him when I hear brass--especially trombones.
Kind of what I was thinking. No other sound seems to mimic heaven and earth So much at the same time. Strips away the veils of illusion. ....time for another Guinness.
