Percy Grainger penned his piano arrangement of the English folk-dance tune Country Gardens in 1917. Whilst the piece was a huge commercial success, Grainger came to detest it and complained of his audiences that, 'If I don't play it, they won't leave'. This version for wind quintet draws from both Grainger's piano versions and some of the more palatable parts of his slightly odd 1950 orchestration.

Competent arrangement of Percy Grainger's take on this trad English tune. One of those few melodies which are still familiar to most age groups. We found it to be a great encore item taken at a brighyt pace,
