Composed by Edward MacDowell. Arranged by Ray Thompson. 20th Century,Chamber,Romantic Period. 11 pages. RayThompsonMusic #812646. Published by RayThompsonMusic (A0.1215990).Edward MacDowell was an American composer and pianist of the Romantic period. He was best known for his second piano concerto and his piano suites Woodland Sketches, Sea Pieces, and New England Idylls.
Woodland Sketches includes his most popular short piece, To a Wild Rose.
A master at composing miniatures, his suite of 8 Sea Pieces Op.55 are colourful late-intermediate and early-advanced piano works. The eight pieces with descriptive titles explore a wide dynamic range and span the entire range of the keyboard.
This is my arrangement of No.5 Song (basically a sea shanty)
All of these sea pieces have a poem or piece of text:
This one has:
"A merry song, a chorus brave,
And yet a sigh regret
For roses sweet, in woodland lanes...
Ah, love can ne'er forget!"
Arranged wind quintet: the jaunty melody is given to the clarinet.
