Celebrates the music of Percy Grainger, both familiar and unknown, recorded live in 2011 at a concert given in observation of the 50th anniversary of composer death, performed by the \"President's Own\" US Marine Band under Colonel Michael J. Colburn in collaboration with the Choral Arts Society of Washington. The title The Music Lover's Grainger was borrowed from one of Grainger's many unfinished publishing projects, reflecting the world premiere recordings featured on the program. These include a version of \"The Lost Lady Found\", the final number of Lincolnshire Posy, transcribed for band and chorus, based on Grainger's original setting for chorus and orchestra; the original, unpublished band version of \"Spoon River\", reconstructed from the recently discovered manuscript parts; and a rarely heard, otherworldly harmonization of the \"Londonderry Air\", the tune of \"Danny Boy\", scored for band, chorus, and organ. A significant amateur ethnomusicologist, Grainger drew extensively from folksong, collecting several hundred tunes from the English countryside himself. The repertoire recorded here includes English, Irish, Scottish, American, and Danish influences.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eTracks:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e1.1 Lisbon \u003cbr\u003e1.2 Horkstow Grange \u003cbr\u003e1.3 Rufford Park Poachers \u003cbr\u003e1.4 The Brisk Young Sailor \u003cbr\u003e1.5 Lord Melbourne \u003cbr\u003e1.6 The Lost Lady Found \u003cbr\u003e1.7 I'm Seventeen Come Sunday \u003cbr\u003e1.8 Ye Banks and Braes O' Bonnie Doon \u003cbr\u003e1.9 Spoon River \u003cbr\u003e1.10 The Power of Love \u003cbr\u003e1.11 Lord Peter's Stable-Boy \u003cbr\u003e1.12 The Nightingale and the Two Sisters \u003cbr\u003e1.13 Jutish Medley \u003cbr\u003e1.14 County Derry Air, BFMS NR. 29 \u003cbr\u003e1.15 Molly on the Shore \u003cbr\u003e1.16 The Widow's Party \u003cbr\u003e1.17 Marching Song of Democracy \u003cbr\u003e1.18 The Lost Lady Found\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAudio Sample:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\n                                           \u003ci\u003eAll soundclips are provided by Tidal and are for illustrative purposes only.
