Alphabetical Index of Original Compositions and Folk-Song Arrangements* by Percy Aldridge Grainger Alphabetical Index of Original Compositions and Folk-Song Arrangements* by Percy Aldridge Grainger *including arrangements and realisations by others Listing compiled by Barry Peter Ould, Music Archivist of the Grainger Society. This listing at present supports limited publisher details. A catalogue of works with full scoring details and publisher information will be posted to this website in due course. In the meantime, all enquiries should be sent to the Percy Grainger Society, 2 George Street, Huntly, Aberdeenshire, Scotland, AB54 8BT - or e-mail: [email protected] Enquiries in the USA can now be phoned through to the UK by using the following number: (914) 816 1137 (Please call between 8am - 5pm US Eastern Time) Since the introduction of the new USA copyright laws, many of Grainger's compositions have gone into the Public Domain in the USA. Any work published before 1923 is now PD material in the USA. This has led to a plethora of arrangements being issued by many different American music publishers. Some of the major publishers e.g. Edwin F. Kalmus, Ludwig Music and Masters Music have published scores and material from the original publications and owing to the fact that in a few cases Grainger's music was not renewed at the Library of Congress, has led to the publishing of such major works as "A Lincolnshire Posy" and The Warriors" amongst others by these companies. Southern Music of Texas have issued a major series of Grainger's wind band music with Full Scores under the editorship of R. Mark Rogers in all cases going back to source material and correcting many of the mistakes that appeared in Grainger's scores when they were originally published in short score format. Carl Fischer Inc., who originally published a number of Grainger's wind band works have also brought out new full score editions whilst G. Schirmer Inc., Grainger's original USA publisher have issued a few band works in arrangements as well as some new editions of works already in their catalogue. Jensen Publications in association with R. Smith & Co. (UK) published some of the 'Chosen Gems for Winds' under the editorship of Keith Brion but, the series came to a halt due to copyright problems as some of the titles were owned by G. Schirmer in the USA and the UK publishers were unable to acquire the world rights which they wanted. The remaining 'Chosen Gems for Winds' (all arrangements of other composers’ music by Grainger) are in the process of being issued by Bardic Edition and The Grainger Society and an announcement will be made when these become available. Meanwhile, the copyright situation in Europe remains unaltered and Grainger is still and will continue to be in copyright until 1st January, 2032. Australia has also recently extended their copyright duration to be in line with Europe i.e. 70 years after the death of the composer/author. Anyone seeking to obtain Grainger material with the intention of making arrangements from it must seek permission from the copyright holders and submit a copy of their arrangement to the Grainger Estate for evaluation. Regrettably, in the past many inferior arrangements have been allowed which have been presented as being by Grainger himself! Unfortunately, after Grainger’s death in 1961, and the general decline in his music which followed until the Grainger renaissance in the early 1970’s, fostered an attitude that his musical legacy was a free for all. Although much in keeping with his own ethos of making his music available to all, this situation began to have an impact on the Estate in as much as necessary income to maintain the Grainger House in White Plains, began to decline and in recent years has been compounded by the reduction in mechanical and performing royalties as the collection societies change their methods of collecting such income. In one instance, a major collecting agency refused to believe that Grainger wrote any original music insisting that all he did was to make arrangements and that all his music would come under that heading and thereby would only receive a lower royalty payment against one for original works. As far as we are aware this decision has not been overturned! Whilst the Grainger Estate is only too willing to provide information and guidance, and supply where possible copies of any scores of Grainger’s music which are unobtainable through normal outlets, we do this on the understanding that ‘the labourer is worthy of his hire’ principal. Please note that we are always interested in knowing about arrangements of Grainger’s music by others and in order to keep our listing as up-to-date as possible please send us information about these if you know of any not listed here.

  • Thomas Carl Slattery-The Wind Music of Percy Aldridge Grainger Ann Arbor: University Microfilms (UM Order No
    Thomas Carl Slattery-The Wind Music of Percy Aldridge Grainger Ann Arbor: University Microfilms (UM order no. 67-9104, 1967. 265 pp., The University ofIowa diss.) David S. Josephson [Ed. Note,' This is the second in a series of writings conceived by Prof. Josephson as an essay in bibliography, seeking to provide the foundation for a thorough and broadly-based study of the life and music of Percy Grainger. The first essay, "Percy Grainger: Country Gardens and Other Curses," can be found in Current Musicology 15 (1973): 56-63.] Percy Grainger composed and arranged music for winds from virtually the beginning to the end of his creative life. The fruits of these labors are the subject, at first glance, of the dissertation under review. In fact, however, Thomas Slattery's thesis is more than a study of the wind music: in both scope and length it is the first major attempt to deal with Grainger's life and work. The wind music provides an apt vehicle, for its remarkable range of idiom, genre, and intention allows us to explore the gamut of Grainger's productive life from almost every angle; the finest exemplars of this repertory reveal most immediately his striking ear and fastidious craftsmanship. In- deed, Grainger's largest essay for winds, Lincolnshire Posy, is a handbook of band orchestration and arguably the most idiomatic and sensitive composi- tion ever written for large wind ensemble. The table of contents reveals both the scale of Dr. Slattery's investigation and its cogent organization. The six chapters include an extended biblio- graphical summary; music for wind band; the chamber music for, with, and arranged for winds; Grainger's wind scoring; his innovations; and a sum- mary of sources.

Ham Concert Hall Performing Arts Center University of Nevada, Las Vegas PROGRAM NOTES AND BIOGRAPHIES Silvestre Revueltas’ Janitzio, is one of the most genial of his short orchestral works, which takes its name from an island in Lake Patzcuaro in the Mexican state of Michoacán. Revueltas' composition is hardly a loving tribute to the island of the title; rather, the composer takes a gleeful poke at the tourists who had overrun the place. Revueltas wrote: "Lake Patzcuaro is filthy. Romantic travelers have dressed it up with postcard-style verses and music. Not to be outdone, I added my grain of sand. Posterity will undoubtedly reward me for this contribution to our tourist industry." Loud and festive, but with an easy waltz-like swing, Janitzio evolves from a theme in 3/8, evoking a local melody as though played by an out-of-tune band. Typically, Revueltas frequently interrupts the flow with abrupt changes of instrumentation and character. The central section of the work's ABA structure allows the oboe and clarinet, then trumpet and horn to provide an unexpectedly tender respite; before long, however, the festive music of the opening returns in full force.
