Folksongs are a country's history told by the people themselves. They deal with everyday life and the perils of living in a particular age- of press-gangs and poachers, of the joys of a life at sea, and the sorrow of losing a husband to a foreign war.This volume, then, is a record of a tradition which is still alive and still changing, and singers should feel free to use it how they wish; with guitar, piano or small band; with one voice or several; for singing, playing, dancing or all three.In many cases the rhythm of the melody will have to be adapted to the underlay of the words in the second and subsequent verses- singers should use their discretion about how this may best be done.ContentsA-rovingA wonderful new ballad of a wonderful old manAh, the sighs that come from my heartAll round my hatAll through the nightAn old man's adviceAnnie LaurieAuld lang syneBarbara AllenBilly BoyBlow away the morning dewBlow the man downBobby ShaftoeBrigg FairCa' the yowesCharlie is my darlingCockles and musselsCome, live with me, and be my loveCome to my windowComin' through the ryeCreeping JaneDance to your DaddyDashing away with the smoothing ironDavid of the white rockDiverus and LazarusDown by the sally gardensDrink to me only with thine eyesEarly one morningFare thee well, cold winterFarewell, ye green fieldsFire down belowGolden slumbersGreen grow the rushes -Oh!GreensleevesHelston furry danceHere's to the maidenHush, my dear, lie stillJohn PeelJohnny ToddLoch LomondLord RandalMaids at eighteenMen of HarlechMy bonnie lies over the oceanMy grandfather's clockMy love is like a red, red roseO Waly, Waly (Somerset)O Waly, Waly (Scotland)Oft in the stilly nightOh can ye sew cushionsOh, no, John!On Ilkley Moor baht 'atOur Captain calls all handsPastime with good companyScarborough FairSeventeen come SundaySheepcrook and black dogStrawberry FairThe ash groveThe Bailiff's daughter of IslingtonThe banks of sweet primrosesThe barley mowThe blacksmithThe boar's head carolThe British grenadiersThe cherry-tree carolThe cuckooThe dark-eyed sailorThe fall of the leafThe false loverThe farmer's boyThe flowers in the valleyThe girl I left behind meThe Jolly ToperThe Keel RowThe lament of the border widowThe lark in the mornThe last rose of summerThe Lincolnshire poacherThe meeting of the watersThe Miller of DeeThe minstrel boyThe murder of Maria MartenThe oak and the ashThe ploughboy's dreamThe sweet nightingaleThe three ravensThe turtle doveThe unquiet graveThe Vicar of BrayThe water of TyneThe willow songThe wraggle-taggle GypsiesThis old manWestern windWhat shall we do with the drunken sailor?When the fancy-stirring bowlWidecombe FairYe banks and braesYoung Henry the poacher
A jazz cantata, Follow that Star uses lively, contemporary language and catchy, memorable tunes. It has a lightly humorous, easy style and keeps moving energetically from beginning to end and is scored for soloists, a group of singers and whole choir, with piano accompaniment.
Margaret Rizza composes hauntingly beautiful melodies and is now recognised around the world as an icon of all that is holy and best in Christian composition. Her music is wonderfully melodic, often with simple, repetitive melodies carrying short, usually scriptural texts.
Drawing on his vast experience as a pre-eminent composer of liturgical music for English Speaking Churches, Colin Mawby provides here a collection of inspirational improvisations for the organ. Whether you are looking to provide music which is reflective or calm, or perhaps require something lively, powerful, even exultant, this collection is nothing short of perfect.Please note made to order items are non-returnableContentsA calm improvisationA festal improvisationA forceful improvisationA happy improvisationA joyful improvisationA jubilant improvisationA lively improvisationA meditative improvisationAn exultant improvisationAn introspective improvisationAnother reflective improvisationA peaceful improvisationA powerful improvisationA reflective improvisationA rugged improvisation
This is a really useful resource for parish organists who find themselves needing more music at the end of a hymn to bring a procession or other action to a conclusion. Each piece flows naturally from the hymn tunes on which it is based.
This comprehensive collection brings together 42 distinctive organ works by Martin Setchell, showcasing the entertaining and accessible compositional style of one of New Zealand's most celebrated concert organists.
Setchell combines rigorous academic training with decades of international performance experience. As Associate Professor at the University of Canterbury for 40 years and curator of the renowned Rieger organ in Christchurch Town Hall, he has devoted his career to promoting the organ as a concert instrument to worldwide audiences.This collection serves equally well for worship, recital, or private study, offering music that is both technically rewarding and musically fulfilling, perfectly embodying Setchell's philosophy of entertaining a wide audience through high-quality organ repertoire.
