Songs from Across the Water was commissioned by Pennsylvania Symphonic Winds - Phil Evans, Founder and Director. Phil Evans hails from the UK and served for 25 years in the Band of HM Royal Marines. Now resident in the USA he founded Pennsylvania Symphonic Winds in 2008, giving them the tag line ‘An American Band with a British Accent’, as he wanted to combine the best of both countries’ band traditions. With this in mind, composer Philip Sparke decided to create a suite of British folk songs, scored with an American influence to fulfil the philosophy of the band’s tag line. The three movements, which are played without a break, are based on the following folk songs,which come from all corners of the British Isles: The Three Ravens & The Cruiskeen Lawn, The Lark in the Clear Air and The Piper o’ Dundee & Men of Harlech. Songs from Across the Water werd geschreven in opdracht van de Pennsylvania Symphonic Winds, waarvan Phil Evans de oprichter en tevens de dirigent is. Phil Evans is geboren en getogen in het Verenigd Koninkrijk, hij was 25 jaar lang lid van de Band of HM Royal Marines. Tegenwoordig woont hij in de VS, waar hij in 2008 de Pennsylvania Symphonic Winds oprichtte, met als motto ‘An American band with a British Accent’ (Een Amerikaans blaasorkest met een Brits accent), aangezien hij de blaasmuziektradities uit beide landen wilde combineren. Met dit gegeven in zijn achterhoofd creëerde componist Philip Sparke een suite van Britse folksongs, georkestreerd met een Amerikaanse invloedom de filosofie achter het eerdergenoemde motto eer aan te doen. De drie delen, die zonder onderbreking worden gespeeld, zijn gebaseerd op de volgende folksongs, die afkomstig zijn uit alle hoeken van de Britse Eilanden: The Three Ravens & The Cruiskeen Lawn, The Lark in the Clear Air en The Piper o’ Dundee & Men of Harlech. Songs from Across the Water wurde von den Pennsylvania Symphonic Winds in Auftrag gegeben, deren Gründer und Leiter Phil Evans ist. Phil Evans stammt aus dem Vereinigten Königreich und spielte 25 Jahre lang im Blasorchester der HM Royal Marines. Inzwischen lebt er in den USA und gründete 2008 die Pennsylvania Symphonic Winds, denen er den Beinamen An American band with a British Accent“ (Ein amerikanisches Blasorchester mit einem britischen Akzent“) gab, da er das Beste aus der Blasorchester-Tradition beider Länder miteinander vereinen wollte. Aus diesem Grund hat der Komponist Philip Sparke eine Suite aus britischen Volksliedern komponiert, wobei dieInstrumentierung einen amerikanischen Einfluss hat, um so die Philosophie des Orchesterbeinamens zu verwirklichen. Die drei Sätze, die ohne Pause gespielt werden, basieren auf den folgenden Volksliedern, die aus allen Gegenden der britischen Inseln stammen: The Three Ravens & The Cruiskeen Lawn, The Lark in the Clear Air sowie The Piper o’ Dundee & Men of Harlech. Songs from Across the Water est une commande du Pennsylvania Symphonic Winds et de Phil Evans, fondateur et directeur. Phil Evans est originaire du Royaume-Uni où il a joué dans l’orchestre des HM Royal Marines pendant 25 ans. Vivant désormais aux Etats-Unis, il y a fondé le Pennsylvania Symphonic Winds en 2008 et lui a donné le slogan « un orchestre américain l’accent britannique », aspirant combiner les meilleures traditions d’harmonies des deux pays. Avec cette idée l’esprit, le compositeur Philip Sparke a décidé de créer une suite de chansons folkloriques britanniques, orchestrées l’influence américaine en rapport avec la philosophie du groupe. Les troismouvements qui s’enchaînent reposent sur les trois chansons folkloriques suivantes, qui viennent de tous les coins des Îles Britanniques : The Three Ravens & The Cruiskeen Lawn, The Lark in the Clear Air et The Piper o’ Dundee & Men of Harlech.

Frank Bridge (1879--1941) was one of the leading English composers of his time. In October 1922, he adapted his popular string quartet Sir Roger de Coverley for full symphony orchestra and Sir Henry Wood agreed, at the last minute, to include it in the last night of the Queen's Hall Promenade Concerts at the end of that month. This elaborate and colourful orchestral version has never been widely performed, but has now been brilliantly transcribed by Alastair Wheeler to provide a miniature dance poem for grade 5 level concert band. Bridge's lively treatment of one of England's most famous traditional dance melodies will make a fitting end to any concert, with the strains of Auld Lang Syne introduced by Bridge as a nod towards Sir Roger de Coverley's traditional function as the final dance of a Christmas Ball, as it was in Old Mr. Fezziwig's party in Dickens' A Christmas Carol.
