Par L'ESTRANGE ALEXANDER (Arr.). Danny Boy (the melody of which is also known as Londonderry Air), is often assumed to be an old, traditional tune, however its structure and meter do not fit any of the known Irish folksong forms. As for the words most commonly associated with it for the last hundred years or so, they were written by an English lawyer who apparently never set foot in Ireland! Still, it’s one of the best-loved folksongs of all and this very approachable arrangement by Alexander L’Estrange brings out the bitter-sweet nature of the text.

Par L'ESTRANGE ALEXANDER (Arr.). The Skye Boat Song is perhaps one of the best-known Scottish melodies of all. It refers to the story of Bonnie Prince Charlie who, still only a boy, was smuggled out of Scotland to France after the Scots’ defeat by the English at the Battle of Culloden in 1745. Despite there being a huge reward on his head, not one of his faithful Highlanders would betray him to the ‘auld enemy’: a girl named Flora MacDonald disguised him in her maid’s clothes and helped to row him ‘over the sea to Skye’. The words by Sir Harold Boulton date from the nineteenth century.
