LIT017  Harold Owen, Variations on a Bourée by Praetorius. Score & parts (Quartet: S A T B). Theme and seven variations. The theme returns with divisions. Level: Mixed, Intermediate & Advanced (6-7). $20.00

Composed for presentation at the International Society for Music Education convention in 1994 held in Eugene, Oregon. Michael Praetorius’ well known Bourée followed by seven clever variations in specific styles, and a reprise of the original bourée with divisions. Delightful.
