Draw Me Close - Flugelhorn

Here's a song we did back in August '07 at First Baptist Church Pearland. It's me on flugelhorn with vocal accompaniment called 'Draw Me Close.' I cracked a note or two and flubbed a couple of entries, but went pretty well overall...

John wonderfully played.I wonder if I may be s bold as to ask you for a copy of your solo Draw Me Close. I have a young lady I teach who would be able to play it. She is the Flugel Horn of Deveron River Brass here in Banff Scotland. A young player with lots and lots of potential. I could arrange it for her and the band if you allow me to.

@MrTbrasstam Thanks! I'd be glad to send you the arrangement. I actually played it by ear originally, but transcribed it when I got several requests. Email me at and I'll be glad to send it to you. Thanks!

Thank you for your performance. You have inspired me to buy a flugelhorn. I normally play in a Baptist church in Denmark. Normally the Bb trumpet or Eb trumpet, but now also the Bb flugelhorn!

Good to hear that song!

@t111838 Wow... what a blessing! Thank you for the kind words. Best wishes on your new purchase. I love my flugel... a very special horn.

Good playing, love the flugelhorn sound, just needs a bit of practice here and there. Would have been much better with one good backing singer than four average ones, its just very flat

@stickshinge - thanks for the feedback. I was a little rough in a couple of spots. I'd like to hear you play but didn't find any posted ... Do you have any of yourself, or only of others?

Hello, Few months ago I already wrote a reaction to this video. I really love this performance and I would really appreciate it if you would send me the arrangement also. I would love to play this song in my church in Holland. I hope to hear from you. God bless you! Suzan.
