Selections from The Greatest Showman arranged by Paul Murtha

[@DeceasedDuck]

you know lots of music words (piano, forte and much more) are actually based from italy

[@Crowded.]

As a trombone player, I'm glad the low brass has some good melodies in this song

[@feepo566]

Agreed! I love playing melody but I'm also like so scared at the same time

[@iski1966]

Um I play bari sax if u think getting melody is hard on trombone try bari.

[@feepo566]

It’s Oli Every part is hard in their own ways, but what I meant is I’m afraid of messing up because I’m not the most confident person, but everyone’s part is important and sounds amazing

[@iski1966]

Yeh very scary because if u mess up yr the loudest so everyone Hears us mess up 😨😱🥶

[@Crowded.]

Yeah, that’s why I never do any solos when I’m offered one, but I don’t think melodies are as bad. In fact, they’re some times enjoyable when you do them right

I don't like that this ended with "never enough." It should have ended with a reprise from "the greatest showman" since it also starts and finishes the movie that way. If not that, than "this is me" since that was the movies anthem. "Never Enough" is just not a strong enough conclusion. Other than that, the arrangement was really good.

[@emerald8993]

Stella Baker I agree. Usually you would start strong, and end stronger. Basically in Concert you should have the Climax of the show at the ending. Because you want to get the croud rilled up and ready to clap when you stand.

[@emerald8993]

Though, I love the song.
