HOW TO USE THIS PIECE

Scarborough Fair

 

This traditional and well-known English folk song was made popular during the mid-1960s by the singing duo, Simon and Garfunkel.  The term "Scarborough Fair" refers to a large trading event (called a "fair") held in the seaside town of Scarborough (England) during the 13th century.  Harry Swenson has set this piece for a three-part (CCB) all-boys choral group of early adolescents.  Although Part I and Part II are written in the treble clef to be sung at actual pitch, due to the low tessitura it is not recommended for adolescent mixed groups, although it may be sung by older groups of mixed voices.  Access the Three-part Variable Voicing Chart to ascertain the different voicings that are available.
