The Wayfaring Stranger is a well-known American folk and gospel song likely originating in the early 19th century about a plaintive soul on the journey through life.
Andy Scott writes “This is a tune that I have played many times and improvised around, and then which I arranged for John Helliwell (with string quartet and Hammond organ) for his album ‘Ever Open Door’ (Challenge Records). The reharmonisation that I used for this arrangement seemed transferable to me for saxophone ensemble, whilst utilising some of the timbral and dynamic possibilities that this ensemble possesses.”
In addition to the standard saxophone ensemble line up of SSSAAATTTBBBs, Andy Scott has created this arrangement for SAAAAATTBB.
