Product Description

This beautiful ancient melody is treated with great respect by Scottish bagpipers, who play it only on serious ceremonial occasions, and not for mere entertainment. It marks a terrible defeat at the Battle of Flodden, and the text describes the grief of those left at home to mourn. The "Flowers" in the title are the slain men, and the accompaniment in this 2-piano arrangement by Richard Simm retains the haunting character of distant bagpipe music. The Piano I part is easy, intended for relative beginners, while the second part is for teachers and more advanced pianists.

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.
