Shepherd's Hey

Title: Shepherd's Hey
Level: 4
Composer/Arranger: arr. by Percy Grainger
Publisher: Carl Fischer
Classification: Folk Dance Tune
Instrumentation: Full
Source: Poppler's Music Store - score
General Comments: Shepherd's Hey is written in 2/2 time, tempo Presto. The woodwind section must have technical ability, because there is a lot of counting involved, as well as lots of notes. With all of the accented figures involved, this is a good piece for players to practice articulation. Your audience will love the piece.
