Review:
From the 1985 copyright files of Harold Flammer comes this fantasy on the English Ayre "Greensleeves." The tune is highly stylized with varying rhythmic and harmonic to the original. An unusual format calls for 3, 4, and 5 octave choirs to ring measures 1 - 18. At that point the 3 octaves continue, but the 4 & 5 octaves skip two pages for the remainder of their setting. 60 measures in length, it is scored in e minor.
