Thread: Grainger Album by the US Marine Band and Choral Arts Society of Washington

  1. Grainger Album by the US Marine Band and Choral Arts Society of Washington

    Not sure if this is the right sub-forum to post this, so my apologies if this is in the wrong place!

    I recently found this album by The President's Own and The Choral Arts Society of Washington that was quite interesting! It's all works by Grainger, and what I found neat were several arrangements of some of his standard band works for wind band and choir, such as Irish Tune from Country Derry and Lost Lady Found from Lincolnshire Posy, the latter includes the choir singing the original folksong lyrics.

    Here is the YouTube playlist link (the album is also available through Spotify if you prefer):

    I always found Colonial Song to be really hard!
