Percy Grainger, much like his contemporary Bela Bartok, was
intensely interested in folk music and became a member of the
English Folk-Song Society soon after his arrival in London in the
first decade of the 20th century. He produced numerous works based
upon folk music from the British isles, with more than 45 items in
his "British Folk-Music Settings" alone. As with many titles in the
series, Shepherd's Hey exists in multiple arrangements -
"dished-up" by the composer himself. This is the first version
(BFMS 3), composed between 1908-11, scpred for an ensemble of 12
players. Grainger's original score was a "compressed full score"
which did not precisely notate each part in detail. The score
offered here is a newly edited and engraved edition prepared by
Richard W. Sargeant Jr. based upon both the original score and the
actual orchestral parts issued at the same time. Those interested
in Grainger's unique orchestrational palette can now see in it full
detail.
