Product Description

From Amazon.co.uk

Percy Grainger was one of music's true originals. Folk-song collector, bandmaster, composer of quirkily original orchestral and choral music, his works have yet to be fully appreciated--or even catalogued. The problem was that he liked to keep his performance options open, and generally produced several versions of the same piece, some of which were complete rewrites (and therefore new works), while others were modest rescorings. The choral music largely consists of folk tune and popular song arrangements that Grainger collected on his travels through the English and Irish countryside. You owe it to yourself to hear them; they are, one and all, delightful. --David Hurwitz

5.0 out of 5 stars Hello Grainger!, Jul 25 2000
By "moomoomoo2elt" (Midland, TX United States) - See all my reviews
Well, this is a fine recording. We played "Irish Tune" this year in band and it is very hard to play right. Any band that can play this song and do it well, really shows how disciplined they are. Fine recording!
