@mickeymousepokaspot3 it's probably the Lord of the Dance; that was a famous adaptation of the song.

[Jrink300]

why does this always start muted?

[ghostdog7575]

"shaker, traditional" in the upper right of the sheet is not correct: it is indeed a shaker hymn but it has been written in 1848 by Joseph Bracket Jr. a Shaker Elder.

And the original score is in G not C

[ghostdog7575]

@ghostdog7575 I meant " in G not in F

[MagnusRush]

For trumpet?

Simple Gifts slowed down is very beautiful, but just because a song has the same title does not mean it is the exact same piece. Nearly every song has different versions by one or more composers called Arrangments.
