Wellerman: (Arr. Ralf Bienioschek): Blockflöte Ensemble

This old New Zealand folk song, made popular worldwide by the Scottish singer Nathan Evans in 2021, is sure to put you in a good mood. This arrangement was made by the renowned German recorder soloist and teacher Ralf Bienioschek for his special ‘Ralf Bienioschek Signature Edition’ series. The arrangement is for a standard quartet of Soprano, Alto, Tenor and Bass Recorder, with additional parts provided for Great Bass Recorder or Sub Bass (Contrabass) Recorder. Optional parts for Melodica/Accordion/Keys, (Electric) Guitar, (Electric) Bass, (Electronic) Drum Set, Cajon and a playback (available via our website www.bandmusicshop.com) are also included. You can find a Score Play demo and a "How to Play" video on our YouTube channel Hal Leonard Europe Ensemble. There are several ways to play the song. In principle, many options are conceivable, e.g. - standard Recorder Quartet (expandable to quintet) with (or without) the Playback - with a band: Melodica/Accordion/Keys, E-Guitar, E-Bass, (E)-Drum Set - with an acoustic band: Melodica/Accordion, Western Guitar, Acoustic Bass, Cajon - or just the Melody part with (or without) the Playback. Have fun with the song and enjoy!
