Description
Bring a touch of Scottish military history to your program with Adrian Drover’s vibrant arrangement of the Traditional folk song, Johnnie Cope. This tune, famous for its mocking tone toward General Sir John Cope after the Battle of Prestonpans, is treated here with rhythmic flair and technical wit. Drover’s arrangement infuses the piece with modern harmonies and syncopated energy, creating a jaunty and engaging concert item. The brass band flourishes highlight the technical agility of the Cornets and Trombones, while maintaining the steady, driving pulse of the original march. It is an excellent choice for themed concerts or as a high-spirited “light” item to contrast more serious works.
