Boosey and Hawkes American Folk Fantasy (Score and Parts) Concert Band Composed by John Edmondson

American Folk Fantasy is a medley in overture style, which includes three well-known American folk songs The first section utilizes 'Round Her Neck She Wears a Yellow Ribbon in an up-beat, march-like rendition The second tune, All the Pretty Little Horses (Hushabye), provides a lyrical touch to the middle section What follows is a stirring setting of the famous Shaker melody, Simple Gifts, which ultimately rushes to a grandiose conclusion (4:45)
