Here is a wonderful collage of four cherished folk songs scored for the intermediate full or string orchestra. This wonderful arrangement includes A-Rovin Early One Morning; Barbara Allen and The Lincolnshire Poacher. A wonderful variety of tunes that students should get a chance to play.

Folk Tune (also known as Sheep Shearing Song) was originally composed for piano by Eugene Goossens. This setting for symphonic band by Percy Grainger bears the hallmark ingenious application of instrumentation and harmonizing that Grainger became so well known for.

Ralph Vaughan Williams' Norfolk Rhapsody No. 2 for large Orchestra.Vaughan Williams originally wrote three Norfolk Rhapsodies with the intention of turning them into a three-movement Norfolk Symphony. This the second rhapsody is a telescoped slow movement and scherzo which has been completed and edited by Stephen Hogger. The first has long been in the repertoire but numbers two and three have not been performed since 1914. The third rhapsody unfortunately did not survive.

Moeran based Lonely Waters on the fragment of a song from the Broads of East Norfolk. This flowing atmospheric work is dedicated to Ralph Vaughn Williams and recalls Moeran’s Norfolk boyhood and the folksongs he collected from East Anglia.E J Moeran was a 20th century British composer of Anglo-Irish background who spent his early years in Norfolk. Influences of folksong and programmatic elements can be easily heard in this composer’s main body of work. Moeran tended toward the smaller ensembles in his composition which gave an appropriate frame for his great lyric gifts.

Britten's Irish Reel was composed in 1936 as title music for a documentary film made by Marion Grierson and Evelyn Spice. Around the Village Green was made for the Travel and Industrial Development Association which explored the changes to rural life in East Anglia after the increased mechanisation of agriculture. In his incidental music Britten incorporated a riotous medley of folk songs and other traditional tunes (including 'Early One Morning' 'The Vocar of Bray' and Sheild's 'The Plough Boy') many of which were suggested to him by the Norfolk-based composer E.J.Moeran.

Orchestration-The urgent joy of the driving 6/8 meter is reminiscent of a celtic folk dance and the idiomatic orchestration adds to the folk flavor in this unique Advent offering. Prepare the way for the Lord this Advent season with an anthemeasily learned but not soon forgotten. Outstanding!

George Butterworth was born in London on July 12th 1885 to a well-to-do family. Eton School was followed by university at Trinity College Oxford where he met Vaughan Williams and Cecil Sharp. He taught for a while at Radley studied for a short time at the Royal College of Music then concentrated more or less full time on collecting folk songs sometimes with Vaughan Williams. When the First World War started in 1914 he joined the Durham Light Infantry as a Lieutenant. In the trenches he was mentioned in dispatches for outstanding courage and won the Military Cross. He led a successful raid on August 15th 1916 in the Battle of the Somme but during the raidButterworth was killed by a sniper's bullet.Much of his music is influenced by folk-song. The idyll 'Banks of Green Willow' is one of his best works and perfectly captures the nature of the English countryside. It is almost as if the music occurred naturally and Butterworth just discovered it.This pack comprises one full score string parts 4/4/3/4/2 and any wind brass and percussion parts.Orchestration:2 Flutes 2 Oboes 2 Clarinets in A or Bb 2 Bassoons2 Horns in F Trumpet in Bb Harp Strings (Violin 1 Violin 2 Viola Cello Double Bass)

Scored for large orchestra The Keening was only the second of MacMillan's orchestral works, written between 1985-87 when he was a student of John Casken at the University of Durham. The composer explains that 'keening' is a form of vocal lament associated with mourning, found in folk traditions of Ireland, northern Scotland and other cultures. Much of this work is based on the Gaelic lament tune 'Great is the Cause of My Sorrow', often known as 'Murt Ghlinne Comhann' (The Lament for Glencoe).This 25-minute score was withheld by the composer until 2010, and it received its first performance in 2014, with the BBC Scottish Symphony Orchestra under the composer's direction. A significant addition to the orchestral repertoire by one the leading composers of today. / Orchestre
