Concert Band - Grade 4.5
SKU: AP.44201
Composed by Percy Aldridge Grainger. Concert Band; Performance Music Ensemble; Single Titles. Alfred Concert Band. Form: Transcription. Concert Band Classics. Score and Part(s). 250 pages. Duration 3:35. Alfred Music #00-44201. Published by Alfred Music (AP.44201).
UPC: 038081498232. English. Transcribed by Thomas P. Rohrer.
This delightful Grainger classic was written to depict a jolly old George Friedrich Handel careening down the Strand (the theatre district of London) accompanied by the English popular music of the day. Given the original instrumentation and label as a chamber piece in Grainger's original publication, this transcription is taken directly from Grainger's four-some edition of 1912, transposed down a step from G to F major. It is scored to best depict the light (and sometimes percussive) quality of the piano along with the lyrical flow of the strings and the general character of chamber music. Ultimately, the room music quality of the original shines through in this skillful transcription while depicting the spirit of the piece in a way that Grainger might have chosen. (3:35).
