The Bluebells of Scotland (from Scottish Suite) [Alf:36-A910701]

Leroy Anderson's (1908-1975) "Scottish Suite" (1954) originally had four movements: "The Bluebells of Scotland", "The Campbells Are Coming", "Bonnie Dundee", and "Turn Ye To Me". While he conducted the entire suite on three performances in 1954 and 1955 with the Cleveland Symphony Orchestra, the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, and the University of Miami Summer Symphony, in 1956 Anderson withdrew "The Campbells Are Coming", "Bonnie Dundee", and "Turn Ye To Me" because he was not satisfied with them. Anderson recorded "The Bluebells of Scotland" on June 25, 1954. He later arranged the work for concert band, and now sheet music for "The Bluebells of Scotland" is available for both full orchestra and concert band from the publisher.
