Chamber Orchestra - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.955747 Composed by Phil Thrift. Arranged by Phil Thrift. 20th Century,Folk,Jazz. Score and parts. 80 pages. Phil Thrift #6674855. Published by Phil Thrift (A0.955747). If you’re looking for a respectable, for the listener undemanding, arrangement of the well-known English folk song "Scarborough Fair", then this version may not be for you. Scarborough Affair is a refreshing new take on the original: The familiar melody is never heard in its entirety, there are jazzy harmonies and jazzy syncopations, 5/8 and 7/8 measures, and the arrangement isn’t even in the 3/4 time of the original song. When a 3/4 section does finally appear, featuring a solo for your cor anglais player, the listener gets to hear a variation on the well-known tune.This arrangement is the chamber orchestra edition of the original arrangement I wrote for a wind ensemble and has parts for the following instruments:3 flutes (3rd flute doubling piccolo)2 oboesCor anglais2 Bb clarinets2 bassoonsTrumpet (C and Bb parts included)TromboneHarpsichord doubling pianoStringsYour horn and percussion players can take a break and you may wish to reduce the number of strings.
