About this arrangement

Woodwind Ensemble,Woodwind Quartet Alto Saxophone,Baritone Saxophone,Soprano Saxophone,Tenor Saxophone - Level 1 - Digital Download SKU: A0.580716 Composed by Tod B Galloway. Arranged by David Warin Solomons. 20th Century,Folk. 7 pages. David Warin Solomons #6012927. Published by David Warin Solomons (A0.580716). The text of the Whiffenpoofs Song, the theme song of the Yale University Whiffenpoof Choir, is from 1909-10. It was a parody on one of Rudyard Kipling's "Barrack-Room Ballads" entitled "Gentlemen-Rankers."*  That text was set to music by Tod B. Galloway in 1909. The actual text of the Whiffenpoof Song was written by Meade Minnigerode and George S. Pomery c. 1910 and set to Galloway's melody.   To the tables down at Mory's To the place where Louie dwells To the dear old Temple bar we love so well Sing the Whiffenpoofs assembled with their glasses raised on high And the magic of their singing casts its spell   Yes, the magic of their singing of the songs we love so well "Shall I Wasting" and "Mavourneen" and the rest We will serenade our Louie while life and voice shall last Then we'll pass and be forgotten with the rest.   We're poor little lambs who have lost our way Baa, baa, baa We're little black sheep who have gone astray Baa, baa, baa   Gentleman songsters off on a spree Doomed from here to eternity Lord have mercy on such as we Baa, baa, baa.   *(Kipling's orignal poem begins: To the legion of the lost ones, to the cohort of the damned, To my brethren in their sorrow overseas, Sings a gentleman of England cleanly bred, machinely crammed, And a trooper of the Empress, if you please. Yea, a trooper of the forces who has run his own six horses, And faith he went the pace and went it blind, And the world was more than kin while he held the ready tin, But to-day the Sergeant’s something less than kind.   We’re poor little lambs who’ve lost our way, Baa! Baa! Baa! We’re little black sheep who’ve gone astray, Baa-aa-aa!  Gentlemen-rankers out on the spree,  Damned from here to Eternity, God ha’ mercy on such as we, Baa! Yah! Bah!)   The sound sample is an electronic preview.
