Brass Quintet

Purple Rain
by Prince
arr. Zack Smith
Price: $15

Transposed parts can be ordered.


This is a nice arrangement of the iconic Prince power ballad featured in the movie "Purple Rain".  Trumpet 1 has melody first time through, then the trombone.  Trumpet 2 gets a shortened version of the guitar solo, then it keeps building to the end.  A lot of close harmonies and parts interweaving to create the effect of guitars and keyboards.  A really cool closer to your Prince set!  Difficulty is medium advanced due to trumpet and trombone range and importance of good time!

Listen to a synthesized sound clip.
