The Last Rose of Summer [Alf:81-BC2447]

This famous Irish folk melody is the "Groves of Blarney". It has been performed by many vocal soloists from the United Kingdom and around the world. The solo voice could be played on either trumpet or, more appropriately, cornet. The percussion is optional but would add some more colour to a brass choir consisting of 4 trumpets, 4 horns, 3 trombones, euphonium and tubas.
