* When the bass part is printed in the trombone range, there is


minimal voice overlap if trombones are playing both the tenor
and bass. If the bass part is printed in the tuba range, there will
be voice overlap between trombones playing the tenor and bass.

Let me know if you find any errors, have suggestions, or are just
using the book. I’d love to know! ( aaron.cole@byron.k12.mn.us )

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.

How to use this book
For flute players

1. The SOPRANO part is your main part


2. The ALTO part works for you most of the time
a. You could split the section Flute 1 and Flute 2
b. If the alto is higher than the soprano, don’t use it
3. The TENOR and BASS parts are just there so you can see
what the others are doing
4. When a part gets too high or too low, little CUE NOTES
are provided so you can always play with a GOOD
SOUND
5. Sometimes, you’ll see a note in parenthesis ( ). You
generally cannot play these notes because they are too
low. Usually, they are there just to show you where the
actual part should go.

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.

How to use this book
For oboe players

1. The SOPRANO and ALTO parts are your main parts


a. Sometimes, the soprano parts are a bit high in the
oboe range. In that case, try the alto part, or play
the soprano part down an octave (cue notes are
provided).
2. The TENOR and BASS parts are just there so you can see
what the others are doing
3. When a part gets too high or too low, little CUE NOTES
are provided so you can always play with a GOOD
SOUND
4. Sometimes, you’ll see a note in parenthesis ( ). You
generally cannot play these notes because they are too
low. Usually, they are there just to show you where the
actual part should go.

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.

How to use this book
For bassoon players

1. The TENOR and BASS parts are your main parts


a. Sometimes, the bass part is provided in two different
octaves (high and low). It is your choice.
2. The SOPRANO and ALTO parts are just there so you can
see what the others are doing
3. When a part gets too high or too low, little CUE NOTES
are provided so you can always play with a GOOD
SOUND
4. Sometimes, you’ll see a note in parenthesis ( ). You
generally cannot play these notes because they are too
low. Usually, they are there just to show you where the
actual part should go.

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.

How to use this book
For Bb clarinet players
1. The SOPRANO and ALTO parts are your main parts
2. Most of the time, the TENOR part also works for you if it
lower than the alto part
a. Split the section up to cover multiple parts
3. The BASS part is there so you can see the other part

For bass clarinet players


1. The BASS part is your main part
2. The upper version of the TENOR part (cue notes) is
generally in the correct range for your instrument
3. The SOPRANO and ALTO parts are there so you can see
what the others are playing

For both
1. When a part gets too high or too low, little CUE NOTES
are provided so you can always play with a GOOD
SOUND
2. Sometimes, you’ll see a note in parenthesis ( ). You
generally cannot play these notes because they are too
low. Usually, they are there just to show you where the
actual part should go.

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.

How to use this book
For clarinets in Eb

1. This book was written so that Eb Clarinet, Alto Clarinet,


and Eb Contra Alto Clarinet players could use it.
2. You should play the part that makes the most sense for
your instrument
a. SOPRANO and maybe ALTO for Eb Clarinet
b. ALTO and maybe TENOR for Alto Clarinet
c. BASS for Eb Contra Alto Clarinet
3. When a part gets too high or too low, little CUE NOTES
are provided so you can always play with a GOOD
SOUND
4. Sometimes, you’ll see a note in parenthesis ( ). You
generally cannot play these notes because they are too
low. Usually, they are there just to show you where the
actual part should go.

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.

How to use this book
For alto saxophone players
1. The ALTO part is your main part
2. Sometimes, the TENOR part works for you if you play the
lower version (the upper version is for bari sax)
3. The SOPRANO can work for you if it is in a high, yet
reasonable range

For baritone saxophone players


1. The BASS part is your main part
2. The upper version of the TENOR part (cue notes) is
generally in the correct range for your instrument
3. The SOPRANO and ALTO parts are there so you can see
what the others are playing

For both
1. When a part gets too high or too low, little CUE NOTES
are provided so you can always play with a GOOD
SOUND
2. Sometimes, you’ll see a note in parenthesis ( ). You
generally cannot play these notes because they are too
low (ex. Bari’s w/o low A). Usually, they are there just to
show you where the actual part should go.

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.

How to use this book
For tenor saxophone players

1. The TENOR part is your main part


a. Sometimes, the ALTO part can work for you if it is in
a high, but reasonable range
2. The SOPRANO and BASS parts are just there so you can
see what the others are doing
3. When a part gets too high or too low, little CUE NOTES
are provided so you can always play with a GOOD
SOUND
4. Sometimes, you’ll see a note in parenthesis ( ). You
generally cannot play these notes because they are too
low. Usually, they are there just to show you where the
actual part should go.

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.

How to use this book
For trumpet players

1. The SOPRANO and ALTO parts are your main parts


a. Though, sometimes the ALTO part can get a bit low
b. Split the section up into two parts
2. The TENOR and BASS parts are just there so you can see
what the others are doing
3. When a part gets too high or too low, little CUE NOTES
are provided so you can always play with a GOOD
SOUND
4. Sometimes, you’ll see a note in parenthesis ( ). You
generally cannot play these notes because they are too
low. Usually, they are there just to show you where the
actual part should go.

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.

How to use this book
For horn players

1. The ALTO and TENOR parts are your main parts


a. Sometimes, the alto will get a bit high, and
sometimes the tenor will get a bit low, but overall,
these parts suit the horn well
2. The SOPRANO and BASS parts are just there so you can
see what the others are doing
3. When a part gets too high or too low, little CUE NOTES
are provided so you can always play with a GOOD
SOUND
4. Sometimes, you’ll see a note in parenthesis ( ). You
generally cannot play these notes because they are too
low. Usually, they are there just to show you where the
actual part should go.

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.

How to use this book
For trombone and euphonium players

1. The TENOR and BASS parts are your main parts


a. However, it is better to have the tuba and low
woodwind instruments play the bass part
2. The SOPRANO and ALTO parts are just there so you can
see what the others are doing
3. When a part gets too high or too low, little CUE NOTES
are provided so you can always play with a GOOD
SOUND
4. Sometimes, you’ll see a note in parenthesis ( ). You
generally cannot play these notes because they are too
low. Usually, they are there just to show you where the
actual part should go.

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.

How to use this book
For trombone and euphonium players

1. The TENOR and BASS parts are your main parts


a. However, it is better to have the tuba and low
woodwind instruments play the bass part
2. The SOPRANO and ALTO parts are just there so you can
see what the others are doing
3. When a part gets too high or too low, little CUE NOTES
are provided so you can always play with a GOOD
SOUND
4. Sometimes, you’ll see a note in parenthesis ( ). You
generally cannot play these notes because they are too
low. Usually, they are there just to show you where the
actual part should go.

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.

How to use this book
For tuba players

1. The BASS part is your main part


2. The rest of the parts are just there so you can see what
the others are doing.
3. If the bass line is split high and low, choose the most
comfortable or split the section up to cover both parts
4. When a part gets too high or too low, little CUE NOTES
are provided so you can always play with a GOOD
SOUND
5. Sometimes, you’ll see a note in parenthesis ( ). You
generally cannot play these notes because they are too
low. Usually, they are there just to show you where the
actual part should go.

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.

marimbas. Ask your director.
3. Ask your director about whether or not to roll in order to
sustain notes.

Horkstow Grange is a folk tune that Percy Grainger collected in 1906 by recording George Gouldthorpe. It is the
tale of how a waggoner, John "Steeleye" Span,and his foreman, John Bowlin', fell out and came to blows.

Gouldthorpe informed Grainger that Steeleye Span resented John Bowlin's harsh treatment and, burning with
resentment, Span wrote this song. The words are set to the tune of a ballad about naval mistreatment
"Andrew Rose, the British Sailor". No other variants of this song have been found.

Horkstow Grange is a house and range of farm buildings situated about half a mile north of Saxby All Saints. Those
who have researched the songs have produced no written evidence of these men or indeed
any local memory of them other than in this song.

Grainger recorded Gouldthorpe singing "Horkstow Grange". Gouldthorpe had a strong


North Lincolnshire accent and takes the song at a brisk pace.

Grainger's arrangement of the song for his "Lincolnshire Posy Suite" (1937) is very different. Grainger slows the song
down considerably giving it a stately feel. This is arguably the greatest transformation of any Grainger arrangement
and he deserves credit for creating such a fine piece from such as a fragmentary song.
