The beautiful, well-known folk song "Arirang" is featured in this creative adaptation by Mark Williams. Colorful percussion writing and solos for alto saxophone and flute help to establish the tone of this very interesting arrangement. John Barnes Chance also used this folk song, named for Arirang Hill, near Seoul, in the concert band classic Variation on a Korean Folk Song. Take advantage of this great opportunity for younger musicians to experience this amazing melody!
