Fantasia on Greensleeves

for piano duet
This exquisite Fantasia on the timeless English folk song 'Greensleeves' was arranged by for piano duet by Hubert Foss based on music from Vaughan Williams's opera Sir John in Love. It features sweeping expressive phrases reminiscent of the Fantasia on a Theme by Thomas Tallis. The folk tune 'Lovely Joan' is included alongside the Greensleeves tune, forming the basis of a more animated central section.
