EASY to MEDIUM
“Rule, Britannia!” is a British patriotic song, originating from the poem “Rule, Britannia” by James Thomson and set to music by Thomas Arne in 1740. It is strongly associated with the Royal Navy, but also used by the British Army. The song soon developed an independent life of its own, separate from the masque of which it had formed a part. First heard in London in 1745, it achieved instant popularity. It quickly became so well known that Handel quoted it in his Occasional Oratorio in the following year. “Rule, Britannia!” (in an orchestral arrangement by Sir Malcolm Sargent) was traditionally performed at the BBC’s Last Night of the Proms, normally with a guest soloist, though in recent years there have been amendments. The melody has been used by prominent composers, including Beethoven, Wagner, Johnann Strauss I, Guilmant, Sullivan and Elgar.
Johnstone’s four-part cello ensemble version is ideal for intermediate and elementary level cellists. The first part ventures no further than the octave harmonic A (5th position) and all other parts simpler, though preparations for fourth finger extensions are regularly found, given the tonality of D Major.
