Just wondering if anyone has got the alternative version of the Scherzo
of WSBennett's Fantaisie Op16, published in 1856 as a stand-alone
piece 19 years after the original work (now available on IMSLP) appeared.
It would be interesting to see the differences between the two versions.
Apparently, the Trio is omitted, the Scherzo reprise is shorter, and the
dynamics are different.

Here are the Parry Variations you were looking for.
Sorry there is some blacking on the pages. In the days when I got this (many years ago) I had to use
cellotape to join pages together.
I hope You have as yet, not ordered these.

Thanks very much Peter for the score of this magnificent piece of music. And thanks, too for writing in the variation numbers, many of which I could not have found myself. I mean, who starts a new variation in the middle of the staff?
There is a new (2014/10/25) scan of the score at IMSLP that is almost Alfor quality:

Thanks FW190 for your file.
Alfred Cellier and his brother Frank (Francois) were both composers in
the Gilbert and Sullivan mould, and the latter's grandson Peter is a noted
theatre, TV and film actor, probably best known for his role in Yes Minister,
and he played W.S.Gilbert in the 1983 film The Best of Gilbert and Sullivan.

Rare recordings of Bush indeed these are. These are very nice performances of these modal gems and big PLUS points for recording in the FLAC format.
And I'll play along while pondering the relationship to Jehan Alain whose organ music I've enjoyed for decades.
Thank you, Alfred.
