Intermediate. Score. Published by David Warin Solomons. S0.53549. It all began with the idea one morning that the "other tune" for Nahum Tate's carol "While shepherds watched" is, of course, the Yorkshire ditty "On Ilkley moor bar t'hat". Well, as the afternoon progressed, other tunes got added, resulting in a curious potpourri for choir and piano. The choir gets to sing "On Ilkla Moor", the Este psalter tune known to all, and also Auld Lang Syne. The second voice, in its madrigalian way, gets a sly English cadence. Meanwhile, the piano gets some sly references to "Sing a song of sixpence" and "Scotland the brave". I sang it in G on this mp3, to fit my multitrack range, but versions are available on sheetmusicplus in G. ATBB. , C. SATB. fairly high for the sopranos. and Bflat. SATB. fairly low for the basses.
