Product Description

This is possibly the greatest patter song ever written. From Gilbert and Sullivan's 1879 operetta Pirates Of Penzance, it has been parodied many times. Its tongue-twisting lyrics and catchy melody make it very popular.

This arrangement is designed so that the soloist can be instrument from Bb cornet down to Euphonium (or even a vocalist singing the original lyrics!).

After deciding the solo instrument, the other parts should work as below. Aim for two players for each harmony part.

  • Cornets as normal (flugel doubles repiano)
  • Harmony 1: 2 tenor horns
  • Harmony 2: any 2 of tenor horn, baritone, trombone
  • Harmony 3: any 2 of baritone, trombone, euphonium
  • Harmony 4: any 2 of baritone, bass trombone, euphonium
  • Bass: Eb and Bb as normal - 1 of each only during solo sections
  • Percussion: Any combination optional
