Gammal Fäbodpsalm - Brass 10 Piece

This is a recording from my rehearsal for my final recital in Dukes Hall at the Royal Academy of Music, 03/10/09. Much thanks to everyone who helped make this recording possible.

Gammal Fäbodpsalm, a folk hymn of Swedish origin is translated into English as Old cattle pasture hymn. It was arranged by Oskar Lindberg for organ when he edited the church of Sweden's hymn book and was later used by Swedish pop group ABBA during their 1979 tour. There have been many arrangements for trumpet, most notable is from Alison Balsam's album caprice for trumpet and strings.

It is often played on funerals and is usually the best part of the ceremony. This piece (not this recording) caught my attention at a friends funeral. 33 years. Stroke.

I picked it and had it played for my mothers funeral 4 years later.

I had the great honour to play this as solo oboe with the McGill Universiy Wind Symphony in 1992(or 3) as part of a Nordic festival. Absolutely splendid piece. This ensemble is playing it about as well as it can be played. Brass choirs have this amazing ability to sound like a single instrument while still being able to let each voice shine out.

Immaculately played with emotions and intensity. The peace has a a special reflective and calm mood about it. Just beautiful!
