Par L'ESTRANGE ALEXANDER (Arr.). When Cecil Sharp transcribed O Waly Waly in 1908, it bore this title but did not contain the title words (beginning instead with ‘Down in the meadows’). It has been suggested since that the version we know now may be a composite of three songs: the Scottish ‘Waly waly’ (meaning ‘a cry of woe or grief’), the Cecil Sharp transcript and an American song, The water is wide, which begins the first verse of our version. This sad song is sometimes set in 3/4 time, but in this arrangement L'Estrange has chosen to give it a gently rocking 4/4 feel, slightly reminiscent of the version by the singer James Taylor. This beautiful folk tune also features in L’Estrange’s hit cantata Ahoy! Sing for the Mary Rose under the tile The water is wide. This piece is part of the Faber Choral Singles series, offering a selection of beautifully crafted arrangements in a diversity of musical styles. From Broadway, pop and folk to spirituals, gospel and original works, the series is arranged for 3-part choir (soprano, alto and a combined male-voice part) providing flexibility for any choir. Complete with straight-forward piano accompaniments supporting the vocal lines, the Faber Choral Singles series guarantees the perfect repertoire for every occasion – so get exploring and get singing! / Choral Music / Répertoire / Voix Mixtes SAB et Piano

A British Folk Song Fantasy. Par SPARKE PHILIP. Philip Sparke a composé cette fantaisie basée sur des airs traditionnels en provenance des quatre coins des Îles britanniques. L’oeuvre débute avec Brighton Camp, la version anglaise du chant The Girl I Left Behind Me, qui subit une succession de contorsions. Le passage central, plus lent, s’inspire de la mélodie écossaise O Waly, Waly. Vient ensuite l’exposition solide et puissante du célèbre air gallois Men of Harlech, qui, dit-on, raconterait le passé captivant du château de Harlech. Une oeuvre au flair typiquement britannique ! / Niveau : 4 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie
