Bilik "American Variations"

[nafmeadmin]

I would love to be able to do this piece with my community wind ensemble, but it is out of print. Does anyone have a copy they would be willing to let me borrow? If you are not familiar with it, it is based on the folk song “Barbara Allen”; each variation is a dance or style that depicts America’s many immigrant cultural heritages (polka, hora, jig, blues, etc.). Thanks for your assistance.
