Program Notes
Annie Laurie is an old Scottish song based on a poem by William Douglas (1672?–1748) of Dumfries and Galloway. The words were modified and the tune was added by Alicia Anne Scott (ca. 1815-1900) in 1834/5 and subsequently transcribed for trombone solo with band by Arthur Pryor in 1895.
- Program Note derived from publisher and Wikipedia
N.B. The publisher lists Pryor as composer, but the original melody was composed by Scott. Pryor created the variations. The reader may decide whether Pryor impacted the original musical structure sufficiently to consider this a new work.
