The Legend of Greensleeves

Description

Rescored for bands with reduced instrumentation, this unique setting of this well-known song will be the highlight of concert programs at Christmastime and throughout the year as well. The wistful quality of the legend is captured here by a hypnotizing and rhythmic ostinato with creatively lush harmonies. Imaginative colors including easy optional singing create a dreamlike quality throughout, and the hauntingly beautiful ending will leave audiences breathless.
