Boosey and Hawkes Fancie (1961, rev. 1965) Unison Voices and Piano UNIS Composed by Benjamin Britten Standard

Description

for unison/optional three part voices and piano Text: Shakespeare Publisher: Boosey & Hawkes Difficulty level: 1 This was originally one of three settings of Shakespeare texts by different composers – the others being Kodály and Poulenc. It is classic Britten: lovely singable lines, colourful piano part and a highly effective division into three parts at the end in the revised version. It would programme well with The Oxen.
