Ireland: Of Legend and Lore

Dramatic and vivid musical imagery abounds in this expansive work! The creative merging of Irish motives with contemporary compositional techniques will leave your audience amazed at the results.  The percussion writing is exceptionally good; many true Irish rhythms are simulated with modern instruments, and some may be performed on authentic Irish instruments such as the bodhran.  Whle there are many challenges for your performers the end result is amazingly rewarding.  We think you'll agree that this is one of the finest upper level band works to be written in some time!
