Pastorale On A Traditional English Folksong. Composed by La Plante. Concert Band. Score and set of parts. Composed 2019. Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications #012-4737-00. Published by Opus III Wind Orchestra Publications (CL.012-4737-00). Pierre La Plante is well-known for his mastery at creating concert band settings of folk tunes with Grainger-esque style. As I Walked Through The Meadow is a pastorale setting of a traditional English folk tune that, with careful attention to intonation and expressive playing, will give your ensemble’s musicianship a chance to shine. The middle section is a variation on the main theme which returns, builds to a climax and ends quietly in a somewhat wistful manner. A beautiful choice for concert or contest change of pace. Outstanding music for wind band!
