£87.99Excursion! - Lisa Galvin
Lisa Galvin's latest programmatic work, "Excursion!" takes us for a ride on the Erie Canal. Drawing on themes from the well-known "Erie Canal" folk song, this frolicking work transforms that theme into a celebration of the famous stretch of waterway and those who built it. A piccolo soloist gives a nod to the Irish heritage of the workers, and a challenging clarinet solo harkens a raucous German polka that has this work driving to a fun and exhilarating ending! An excellent choice for festival or concert performance! Stunning!

Count Not The Hours - Patrick J. Burns
This piece takes its title from an Irish jig of the same name. The melody is here set as a waltz and therefore prents itself much less forthrightly than O'Neill's original tune. A delight!

The Fair-Day - Hamilton Harty
Using the traditional folk tunes, "The Blackberry Blossom" and "The Girl I Left Behind Me," Sir Hamilton Harty painted a charming picture of turn-of-the-century life in rural Northern Ireland. This brilliant concert band setting captures all the sparkle and wit of the original. An Irish treasure!

Celtic Fantasy - Keiichi Kurokawa
"Celtic" is a widely used term. Its history and culture expands to modern day Spain, Portugal, and North America.However, in this piece, I have based my music on the typical "Celtic" areas of Ireland and Scotland.The Bagpipe drone at the beginning reappears several times.After the introduction, the music transitions to an Irish Reel, The Wind That Shakes The Barley. Reel is a fast tempo dance, often in 4/4 or 2/2 time.Next is the Scottish folksong Auld Lang Syne, known as "Hotaru no Hikari" in Japan.The third movement is called Scotland the Brave. It is often performed by military bagpipe ensembles. Once air is blown into the bag, there is a constant reservoir of sound for Great Highland Bagpipes.A Part (advanced) is a grade 2.5-3 in American grading system. B Part (beginner) is 1-1.5.B Part is accessible for elementary school and junior high school beginning band students in Japan. However, the drone-sounding sections require a certain technique to hold the sound steady.It is my sincere desire that beginning musicians understand the importance of fundamentals through performing good music.Keiichi Kurokawa

The Kerry Dance - Stephen Bulla
Here's a delightful folk song of Irish origin, with a hint of nostalgia thrown in for good measure. It was probably once played on the Bagpipes and is definitely emulated that way in this arrangement.
