George Edwin Smith
Fare Thee Well, My Friend
(Concert Band)
This chorale makes a short, moving tribute for young bands.
Whether we see our old friends again or not, we will always have the wonderful memories of the times we had together. “Fare Thee Well, My Friend” reminds us of the camaraderie and friendships we develop throughout our school years and throughout life, and the sadness we feel when we lose a friend or simply part ways to pursue our own dreams. It is an uplifting farewell anthem to good friends or classmates and will enhance any commencement or other significant ceremonial occasion.
Commissioned by Buhach Colony High School in Atwater, California, to be performed at their graduations and other school occasions.
