from The Greatest Showman. The Greatest Showman est certainement l’une des comédies musicales les plus populaires de ces dernières années. La performance époustouflante de Hugh Jackman dans rôle principal et la musique émouvante ont fait très rapidement de ce film un Classique. L’arrangement du titre « The Greatest Show » par Philip Sparke pour orchestre d’harmonie est tout simplement époustouflante. / Niveau : 3 / TV, Film, Comédie musicale / Recueil / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Arr. Philip Sparke. Par TRADITIONAL. This is an ancient Welsh air that was first published in Relics of the Welsh Bards in 1794. Dafydd (David) Owain was a famous Welsh bard who lived on a farm called Gareg Wen (The White Rock) in Eifionydd, Carnarnvonshire, North Wales. Tradition has it that on his deathbed he called for his harp and composed this lovely melody, requesting that it be played at his funeral. Accordingly, it was later played at the parish church of Ynys-Cynhaiarn. Lyrics were later added by Ceiriog Hughes, which describe the melody's inspiration. This version for concert band retains all the beauty and simplicity of the original. This is an ancient Welsh air that was first published in Relics of the Welsh Bards in 1794.
