Rhosymedre by Ralph Vaughan Williams arranged for Clarinet Quintet or Choir by Matt Johnston. Alry Publications, 2011, SS, includes parts and score. This arrangement can be performed with as few as 5 people (4 clarinets and bass clarinet). There are parts for an optional E-flat clarinet that doubles the melody in the middle of the piece, the fourth part has music for B-flat clarinet, alto clarinet, and basset horn. There are bass parts for bass clarinet (which can be doubled on a contrabass clarinet), contralto clarinet, and string bass. This is an organ piece that takes advantage of the homogeneity of the clarinet family. It is a beautiful chorale prelude with a simple melody emerging from a gentle flowing accompaniment. Rhosymedre, sometimes known as Lovely, is the most popular of the 3 Preludes on Welsh Hymn Tunes by Vaughan Williams. High school level. (C2294)
