Wedding Processional (arr. Mary Clark) by Richard Rodgers Sheet Music for Brass Ensemble at Sheet Music Direct

Product Details

Product Description

"The Sound of Music" recounts the tale of Maria, a postulant sent to care for the seven children of widowed Captain von Trapp in pre-World War II Austria. Maria ends up falling love with the children and their father, choosing to leave the abbey and marry the captain. The family flees to Switzerland as the Nazis annex Austria. The Broadway production of The Sound of Music premiered in 1959, followed by a film adaptation in 1965.

The "Processional and Canticle" is from the wedding scene in the stage version of The Sound of Music. (The film score version is slightly different and shorter.) In the musical, this piece features a choir of nuns singing, along with the orchestra. This arrangement closely follows the stage production score and the 1959 original Broadway cast recording, which includes the "Canticle" section (which is not included in the film).

This piece can be shortened or lengthened as needed for a particular performance or event, making it ideal for any event that needs a processional or recessional. There are also two options for ending the piece - a quiet, solemn ending or a reprise of the processional with bolder finish.

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters.
