Holst, In The Bleak Midwinter (Based On Cranham) [Ken:08305]

In The Bleak Midwinter (Based On Cranham). By: Holst. Arr: Del Borgo. Playground String Orchestra. Instrumentation: standard string orchestra (88555) with opt. piano.

Composed by Gustav Holst for The English Hymnal of 1906, this adaptation of the tranquil Cranham tune uses muted strings to portray the quiet calm of the midwinter season. It calls for smooth, flexible bow changes that are nearly imperceptible to the listener to create a singing, sustained tone quality. Duration 2:55.
