Song background:

This is not my own orginal piece but a transcription arrange from the orgnial.

Joseph J. Daynes was appointed as the 1st Tabernacle Organist in 1863. On September 2nd, 1877, 2nd leader of the Church of Jesus Christ of latter-day Saints died and his funeral, on August 29th of that same year, Josheph compose a piece for him on the the Salt Lake tabernacle organ which had only 2 manuals (Keyboards) at that time. It was then when that piece was arranged and composed as a piano solo. On January 5th 2022, Emertis Tabernacle Organist, played his interpretatin of Joseph's piece on the Tabernacle Choir's Youtube channel's "Piping up" show. I Transcribed it as close as possible on what John was playing. 

VIDEO: In the video I played his piece. **Note; I messed up on the middle section giving an extra note and rthyme of the piece. so the extra note and rythme is not in the organ solo score of my transcription arrangement score.

Hope you enjoy Joseph J. Daynes's "Brigham Young's Funeral March".
