Original

Prelude on an Irish Folk Tune. Grade 3 - Score Only. Composed by Philip Sparke. 1951-. For Concert Band. Anglo Music Concert Band. Grade 3. 16 pages. Anglo Music Press #AMP182-140. Published by Anglo Music Press. HL.44007315. “Slane,” an Irish folk song that appears towards the end of Prelude on an Irish Folk Tune , is a hymn tune version of the much older folk melody “The Banks of the Bann. ” In this composition, fragments of this melody are introduced, hinting at what is to come later in the piece, but another folk-like tune is predominant. This theme later acts as a descant to “Slane” when it finally appears. Add a little Sparke sparkle to any concert with this lovely interlude. Dur. 00.
