More Information

This set is different to the previous three in that it is possible to come up with a 'correct order' of squares - one that will produce the well-known tune alluded to in the anagram title. This set could be very useful for instrumental teachers as a sight-reading tool. I would suggest that the player still tries out different possibilities (both in the ordering and in dynamics, articulation etc), and perhaps even tries playing the squares with an ensemble.

 

Come See the Ogres Quench Iron = See the Conquering Hero Comes

Ape Van = Pavane

Tenor Vocal Cry = Coventry Carol

Otis Wing, Stow Car Wheel = Swing Low, Sweet Chariot

Eardrum Ouvre Onset = Rosamunde Overture

Len's Bell Jig = Jingle Bells
