Program Notes
This is unusually nice, and can be exceptionally effective for concert or contest! It's a very solidly scored, rich, lyrical, lush setting of a typical English folk ballad that contains flowing countermelodies throughout which are of equal importance to the melody. A perfect contrast to a bolder, more vigorous selection, this quite playable work will present your band in a most positive way!
