Added by magataganm, 30 May 2012 I created this arangement for Concert Harp of a traditional Irish Baroque melody "Tír Aire" (ca. 1670-1738). Structurally, there is a lot to be said about similarities between traditional and Baroque music in Ireland, but there are differences in the prominence of ornamentation and personal reinterpretation. Like in Irish traditional, Irish Baroque manuscripts only show the skeleton of the tune; musicians were not only encouraged but expected to embellish the notes and play them differently almost each time through. This is my own interpretation of this work. |
