SKU: A0.1897303

Composed by arr. Linda Fox. Arranged by Linda Fox. This edition: pdf. Baroque, Chamber, Classical, Historic, Opera. 10 pages. Linda Fox Fairbairns #1455750. Published by Linda Fox Fairbairns (A0.1897303).

This setting of “Can Love be Controll’d by Advice?” from The Beggar’s Opera (1727) is conceived for soprano (Polly) with a small ensemble of muted strings. The restrained sonority of the accompaniment, together with its gently inflected chromatic writing, supports the expressive nuance of the vocal line.

The music is shaped by a flexible tempo scheme, allowing contrasts of movement and reflection to emerge in response to the text. This reflects the nature of the tune that John Gay borrowed for the song, "Grim King of the Ghosts"

Just needs four performers: soprano, violin, viola and double bass (can be adapted for cello).

This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
