Product Description
Many years before Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Cats" I created my own setting of TS Eliot's
"Song of the Jellicles" (from "Old Possum's book of practical cats")
Originally it was intended for choir, but the estate of T S Eliot
would not let me use the poem itself as a choral piece.
However, they did allow me to use the word "Jellicle" in my instrumental titles.
Each version follows the rhythms of the T S Eliot poem, but with more ornamentation
than my original choral version.
In the autumn of 2019 the Mount St Mary's University Flute Ensemble, directed by Jennifer Witt, performed it at a concert
so this is their performance.
This product was created by a member of ArrangeMe, Hal Leonard's global self-publishing community of independent composers, arrangers, and songwriters. ArrangeMe allows for the publication of unique arrangements of both popular titles and original compositions from a wide variety of voices and backgrounds.
