Canoe Song - for Trumpet Sextet - PDF digital download
This arrangement is perfect for most trumpet players with 2+ years of experience, but it would be fun to play as a filler for more advanced ensembles as well!
This version of our Canoe Song arrangement is scored for 6 trumpets.
This is a very fun and musically satisfying piece to play! With this piece, each voice gets to have a chance playing the melody as well as the fragments that serve as an accompaniment. The 2nd half of this piece includes a round of this tune in 5 layers, and it’s a lot of fun to play.
For younger players, it can be fun to sing the piece with the original words as it’s learned:
"My paddle’s keen and bright
Flashing with silver
Follow the wild goose flight
Dip, dip, and swing"
The accompanying lines can be sung as "Paddle, paddle" and "dip, dip, and swing".
Duration: 2 minutes
