Pesky random youtube fan here again: any chance you wrote out the parts? I'm recreating your excellent piece to be played at church with a cello, trombone and two trumpets.
Hello Jeremy, thanks for asking, and I'm sorry I missed it the first time! I have a couple of options for you. First would be sheet music for the specific instruments that you are requesting. I don't write out parts myself, because I'm just not that fast, and I don't have a strong understanding of those instruments and their ranges. I do use someone who is a fantastic arranger and has all of the understanding of various instruments for arranging purposes. He charges 7 cents per measure, and I think that would cost around $40 for a custom arrangement of the part that combines Bach with the Spafford hymn. The first part of the video is just the Prelude from the first Bach suite, which you can download for free from the IMSLP website, also known as Petrucci. That would be exactly what you want, emailed to you in PDF form, and I highly recommend that option. Option 2. If your musicians are able to work out their own harmonies for It Is Well, then that leaves your part on the cello, and I would be willing to skype with you sometime, and show you how to play the cello part to accompany them. Not as nice as full arrangements on paper, but I could spend a little time on skype for free. Hope that helps. Andrew
Wow! Great video. More, more, more!!!!!
Thanks Joel! You are one of my inspirations!
Loved it! Any chance you wrote out the parts?
I don't, but I will try to get them on paper!
