Composed by Henry Smart. Arranged by Joseph I. Corporon. This edition: pdf. Chamber, Historic, Religious, Sacred, Traditional. Score and part. 9 pages. Joseph I. Corporon #1224196. Published by Joseph I. Corporon (A0.1657916).Prelude on Lancashire for Violoncello and Organ has been arranged by Joseph I. Corporon. This piece is also available for Violin and Viola with Organ accompaniment.
Henry T. Smart composed the tune in 1835 for use at a missions festival at Blackburn, Lancashire, England. For that festival, which celebrated the three-hundredth anniversary of the Reformation in England, the tune was set to Reginald Heber’s From Greenland’s Icy Mountains. The tune is also associated with other hymn texts such as, Go, Make of All Disciples, Lead On O King Eternal, and The Day of Resurrection.
This arrangement begins in B minor with the Violoncello playing the melody and the organ accompanying. After the instruments switch roles the music modulates to D major. The accompaniment throughout is dominated by a figure with three slurred notes to one unslurred note, and is present in both instruments.
The solo violoncellist will need to be comfortable with frequent bow distribution issues, accidentals, use of the tenor clef, and playing in high positions.
