Scarborough Fair (Sheet music, Vocal score): Michael Higgins Scarborough Fair (Sheet music, Vocal score)
Michael Higgins
R145 Discovery Miles 1 450 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

for SSA and piano Higgins's setting of this popular folk song is simple and wistful, particularly well-suited for children's and youth choirs. With delicate quaver flourishes, the piano accompaniment flows gently alongside the vocal lines, creating suspensions that reflect the mysterious demands of the narrator. Originally published in The Oxford Book of Flexible Choral Songs for three-part choir.

When I am laid in earth (Sheet music, Vocal score): Henry Purcell When I am laid in earth (Sheet music, Vocal score)
Henry Purcell; Arranged by Stanley M. Hoffman
R145 Discovery Miles 1 450 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

for soprano solo and SATB unaccompanied In this innovative arrangement Stanley M. Hoffman takes Henry Purcell's most popular solo aria, the 'Lament' from his opera Dido and Aeneas, and reimagines it as a work for unaccompanied soprano solo and SATB choir, thus making a staple of the solo song repertoire available for choral performance. The chromatic passage that opens the piece is sung wordlessly by the bass section, and Hoffman's setting features imaginative interplay between chorus and soloist, sharing the well-known lyrics between them, and sensitive dynamic contrasts.

Idyll (Sheet music, Vocal score): David Bednall Idyll (Sheet music, Vocal score)
David Bednall
R129 Discovery Miles 1 290 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

for SATB unaccompanied In this bittersweet pastoral setting Bednall's flowing melody lines are paired with the tender words of the contemplative First World War poet, Siegfried Sasson. The 5/4 metre lends a wistful whimsical feel to the music, allowing the piece to flow freely, whilst retaining the playful syncopation so familiar in folk music. The poem itself is a rare step outside Sassoon's typical First World War themes. Rather, Idyll describes a summer garden where he wishes to meet somebody, who, it seems, has passed away. A beautifully creative work offering heartache and warmth in equal measure.
