Par HANNICKEL MIKE. Two melodies in the Scottish style meet head-on in this energetic new arrangement. Your students will love the “bagpipe sound” and rhythmic color of the Scottish “snap”. This arrangement can also be used with young bands as a lesson in the concept of counterpoint. Each of the two main themes is clearly stated on its own, but remarkable things happen when they are played together. Through skillful selection of themes and contrapuntal composition, Mike Hannickel does a masterful job of melding these contrasting songs into a unified and energetic adventure into the Highlands. Fun to play, and a great style study! / Niveau : 2.5 / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Par HOSAY JAMES L.. This delightful medley of timeless Scottish tunes speaks to the piper in all of us. Richly orchestrated and profuse with creative contrast, it will be an exciting addition to your next concert appearance. Regarding preparation, the ranges, rhythms and mixture of styles are right on target for this level band, and Piper’s Rhapsody is sure to become a favorite with your musicians. A study of Scotland’s culture and how the bagpipe and hornpipe are important would be appropriate. A find! / Niveau : 2.5 / Pièce de concert / Répertoire / Concert Band ou Harmonie

Par BLANKEN JOHN. John Blanken has created a swinging arrangement of the famous Scottish traditional tune Scotland the Brave. The usual version with bagpipes is the best known and there is a similarity in Swingin’ Kilts owing to its long, drone-like tones in the accompaniment. The theme has been rhythmically adapted but it is still easily recognisable. Swingin’ Kilts holds a challenge for every brass band. It makes demands in terms of timing and technique which give this work the bravura feel that will keep the audience as well as the musicians swinging in their seats. / Niveau : 3 / Musique légère originale / Répertoire / Brass Band

Par BULLA STEPHEN. 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. / Niveau : 2 / Musique légère originale / Répertoire / Concert Band
