Run, don’t walk to get this version of Auld Lang Syne. It doesn’t sound like a soggy dirge.
We’ve all been at the end of a long gig or New Year’s Eve set, flipping through the folder for something to wrap up the night. Usually, you’re stuck with a clunky, four-square hymnal arrangement that drags on forever and leaves everyone looking at their watches. When you finally get to that last tune of the night, you want something that actually feels like a real musical moment—not just a box you have to check before packing up your horn.
I’ve played this tune hundreds of times, so I know how easy it is for it to fall flat. That’s why I wrote this arrangement. Instead of a sterile, copy-paste transcription of the traditional Scottish melody, I leaned into rich, lush harmonies and put a lot of my own personal spin on the accompaniment. It treats that classic, nostalgic tune like a true brass chorale, passing the colors around the ensemble and giving everyone a few bars off here and there.
It’s the ultimate closer for your winter book that will actually make the audience stop talking and listen.
What you’ll get:

Files: Full Score & Individual Parts (Trumpet 1, Trumpet 2, Horn in F, Trombone, Tuba)
Style: Traditional Holiday / Lyrical Brass Chorale
Difficulty: Medium (Grade 3)
Duration: ~1:45
