Percy Aldridge Grainger’s arrangement of the Scottish song The Caledonian Hunt’s Delight became Ye Banks and Braes O' Bonnie Doon.
The river Doon flows gracefully between the Loch Doon and the Firth of Clyde in Stirlingshire, Scotland.Â
It was inspired by Robert Burns poem, The Banks of Doon, written in 1783.
The piece was originally scored in 1903 for a chorus of women’s unison voices, accompanied by men’s voices, whistlers, and harmonium or organ at will.Â
This was one of Grainger’s earliest folk-music arrangements, and it was dedicated to his dear friend Sigurd Fornander.
The setting for band was completed in 1932 (British Folk-Music Setting No. 32).
Arranged clarinet quintet (based on the wind band arrangement):
1. Eb Clt.(Alt Bb provided)
2. Bb Clt.
