This exceptional
collection of 41 truly
beautiful airs and
ballads from the British
Isles offers both
well-known tunes by the
prolific blind Irish
harpist, Turlough
Oâ??Carolan and rarely
heard melodies by
anonymous composers; all
have stood the test of
time. Arranged for
soprano or tenor
recorder, these include
Oâ??Carolanâ??s
classically influenced
â??Lord Inchiquinâ?
and â??Eleanor
Plunkettâ? as well as
â??O Gentle Doveâ?
and â??Cuckoo
Dearâ?â?? both
examples of the strong
tradition of song in
Wales. Among other tunes,
the haunting modal
melodies of â??The Dark
Slender Boyâ? and
â??Enchanted Valleyâ?
express the melancholic
heart and soul of the
British Isles.
A
few of these songs have
taken on a life of their
own in modern times.
â??Bonny at Mornâ?, a
popular traditional tune
of northern England and
Scotland, was arranged
for soprano voice and
harp by the 20th century
British composer,
Benjamin Britten. â??The
Skye Boat Songâ?
originally recounted
Bonnie Prince Charles
Edward Stuartâ??s
journey to the Isle of
Skye after his defeat at
the historic Battle of
Culloden. Later, the song
evolved into a lilting
lullaby and was more
recently used as the
theme song for the
popular Outlander
television
series.
Departing
slightly from recorder
notation practice, author
Marcia Diehl has
judiciously arranged
these melodies complete
with spare slur markings
to aid the amateur player
in authentically and
musically rendering these
tunes.

This volume
focuses on the medieval
period from approximately
the sixth to fifteenth
centuries. The music of
this era was
traditionally performed
as plainchant (sacred) or
monophony (secular), that
is, as a vocal melody,
here reserved for the
soprano recorder. Seeking
to emulate medieval
performance practice, the
20 tunes in this
collection are
accompanied by a single,
drone-like power or
5-chord to be played on a
modern-day stringed
instrument such as
guitar, mandolin or
banjo. These simple
troubadour songs are
ideal for beginners and
experienced players
alike, who want to be
transported back in time,
immersed in a bygone era
of music. .
