Description
The powerful and emotional ballad Who Wants to Live Forever, famously recorded by Queen for the film Highlander, is expertly arranged for brass band by John Glenesk Mortimer. This setting captures the grand, symphonic scale of Brian May’s original composition, building from a quiet, introspective opening to a massive, soaring finale. It is a fantastic choice for a “Pops” or “Classic Rock” program, allowing the band to demonstrate great expressive range and a resonant, full-ensemble sound.
Difficulty 4
(Medium) A level 4 difficulty rating brings very challenging rhythms to the piece. Syncopation will be freely used, as will the more extreme ranges for all instruments.
