Gaelic Air And Dance (Parting Glass & Collin's Reel)

Description

Series: Voyager String Orchestra (Parting Glass & Collin's Reel) This beautiful and exciting arrangement features two traditional Irish tunes. It opens with Parting Glass, a lovely air which is traditionally sung as a farewell to good friends at the end of an evening together or before a long journey. This setting offers melodic material to all voices and uses the richest ranges of each instrument to maximize the expressive possibilities. Next comes Collin's Reel, a fiddle dance that's great fun to play and features a gradual accelerando that makes for a very fast and furious ending. Duration 4:40
