Arranged by Evelyn Castiglioni. Celtic,Concert,Folk,Holiday. Score. 43 pages. Afghan Press Music for the Harp #4829663. Published by Afghan Press Music for the Harp (A0.797367).
A collection of Scottish tunes from the nineteenth century and earlier have been carefully selected for their suitability on harp. They lay well under the fingers, are enhanced by the rhythmic and tonal properties of the plucked string and its overtones, and are musically interesting. Airs were chosen for their melodic beauty. Arrangements are traditional in style with ornamented melodies, open chords, and spare harmonies. Tunes are given in two keys, one in all naturals or one sharp, the other in one or two flats. Suggestions for fingering are given, levers or pedals need to be set only at the beginning of each piece, except for the Boat Songs, which require one lever or pedal change. Finally, historical and performance notes on the music are provided, together with a list of sources that are available from U.S. or Scottish distributors. Table of Contents: Highland Boat Song and Arran Boat Song (medley), MacDonald Lord of the Isles, Mary Young and Fair, Soldier’s Joy, Garthlands, Niel Gow’s Lament for the Death of His Second Wife, Cradle Song, and St. Mungo’s Welcome to Scott Skinner.
