A Little Prayer

Originally composed for solo marimba, this popular version of A Little Prayer was made in 1998 following Evelyn Glennie's collaboration with Black Dyke Band during the recording of their Grammy nominated Reflected in Brass CD.  Robert Childs, then principal euphonium with Black Dyke, requested Evelyn's permission to make the arrangement for his son, David.  The composer obliged, and Robert presented the score and parts to his son as a seventeenth birthday present.

Evelyn Glennie revealed: "When I wrote this chorale for marimba, it expressed my spiritual feelings and displayed a pleasantly relaxed dimension of the instrument.  Over the years my exposure to brass bands has filled me with wonder; their musical diversity is considerable.  I had no hesitation in giving A Little Prayer to Robert Childs to bring this little melody to life."

Having composed the work when she was only 13, Evelyn continued: "As a child I would never have believed that such a short and simple piece of music, would come to grow this much.  A little Prayerserves to prove that one should always bet their chips on what they believe in, for nine out of ten it will be worth it!"

After twenty years of exclusivity, Prima Vista Musikk is proud to make this beautiful arrangement available to all.  A Little Prayer provides the perfect reflective interlude for concert or devotional use by euphonium soloists and bands of all abilities.
