Be Still was originally written in 1986 by English Christian praise songwriter David Evans. Stephen Tighe, a noted performer, conductor, composer and British brass band adjudicator took this song and arranged it for a 28-piece British brass band. He dedicated his arrangement "to those who lost their lives to terrorist bombers in London on the 7th of July, 2005. May they 'BE STILL IN THE PRESENCE OF THE LORD.'" This arrangement was adapted by Jeff Miner for the ShowMe Brass Band.
The ShowMe Brass Band is a 13-piece brass ensemble from Central Missouri. This recording is from our April 8, 2011 concert. You can contact us at contactus@showmebrassband.org.
