    Ancient Desert Drone (Concert Band - Score and Parts) - Cowell, Henry - Worman, James

    Ancient Desert Drone was composed for orchestra in 1940, at the request of Percy Grainger, who encouraged the idea of using a single pitch "drone" throughout the work (similar to Grainger's own The Immovable Do) and to whom the piece is dedicated. While the work suggests an Eastern charm with its distinctive mode and primitive rhythms, Cowell himself stated there was no particular programmatic intent. This transcription for band is an exotic and welcome addition to the repertoire for winds. Dur: 5:00Recorded by the Trinity University Symphonic Wind Ensemble - James Worman, conductor

Then comes O Shepherd, O Shepherd, Won't You Come Home? which perhaps presents both austere and idyllic aspects of the countryside. Rufford Park Poachers is a heart-felt tribute to Grainger, who once said, that the true worth of his own music would never be gauged until it was understood to be a pilgrimage to sorrows. The Keel Row is depicts a spontaneous folk-dance for the musical and the not-so-musical.
