Composed by Percy Aldridge Grainger (1882-1961) in 1910 originally for 2 pianos, MOCK MORRIS has been arranged for various ensembles, many of them by Grainger himself. Delightfully upbeat and lively, this Grainger classic arranged by Otto Langey for salon/theater orchestra in 1915 will lighten up any performance and provide a bit of musical history at the same time. Written in the style of a morris dance, it is completely original and was inspired by the motto "always merry and bright," which may be the best way to describe it. It moves along at a brisk pace, surprisingly rhythmic and tuneful, and the light, jaunty style will stand out on any program. Instrumentation: 2(2nd dPicc).2.2.2: 2.2.3.0: Perc(3-4): Str (9-8-7-6-5 in set): Pno Cond Sc in set.
