London Bridge Is Falling Down

Traditional (English)

For alto sax and piano

Written in F major, range F4 to D5

Children walk in a line under an arch made by two friends’ raised arms, and on “my fair lady” the arch drops and catches one of them. The words were already printed around 1744 in Tommy Thumb’s Pretty Song Book; the piano part is from Albert E. Wier’s The Child’s Own Music Book (1918).
