BrookWright Music: God so Loved the World (Stainer arr. Keith M. Wilkinson)

An enduring work wonderfully arranged should make a perfect addition to any band programme.

BrookWright
  The work has been expertly arranged by Dr Keith M Wilkinson

John Stainer's 'God so Loved the World' from his oratorio, 'The Crucifixion' has here been expertly arranged by Keith M. Wilkinson for both brass band and brass sextet.

This enduring work is regarded as one of most sublime musical expressions of a text from the Gospel of John. Although set as an ensemble item, and is a semi-tone below the original pitch, it will also work well as a choral accompaniment.
