ABOUT THIS PIECE
The Wellerman is a (now famous) sea shanty that – as many of you know – has been making the rounds on TikTok. The song references ships owned by the Weller brothers, a family of British whalers who emigrated to New Zealand. The ships, or Wellerman’s as they came to be known, would sell provisions to the whaling ships in the area. The crew after a long day’s work craves for the sight of a Wellerman so that it might provide a brief respite from the rigors of whaling life…
This challenging yet powerful brass arrangement gives each instrument part a chance to shine in the brass family and will make a fine edition to your repertoire.
