Writing
these arrangements, Frank
Reinshagen has created
little masterpieces,
which broaden the
rhythmical and harmonic
context of the original
tunes in an interesting
manner without detracting
from their archaic and
melancholic character.
These original tunes
are---in a direct or
wider sense---of Celtic
origin, in other words,
they have been borrowed
from the Irish, Scottish
and Gaelic musical
tradition. These
through-composed
arrangements are rather
easy to perform from the
rhythmical and technical
point of view. Yet, they
are quite demanding in
respect of the key they
are written in, their
intonation and,
especially, their
interpretation. Their
different
instrumentations are
fully compatible with
each other and, due to
their overall structure,
they are also suitable to
be played with
multi-scored parts.
Annotation on
Aignish on the Machair.
The arrangement of
Aignish on the Machair
illustrates, above all,
the melancholic character
inherent in the harmonies
of the original tune. A
short rubato passage is
followed by several
variations over the
flowing melody in 3/4-
time. The short triplet
passages embedded in
these variations are
quite demanding from the
technical point of view;
considering the key they
are written in, however,
these passages are not
too difficult to
play.

These through-composed

different

fully compatible with
each other and, due to
their overall structure,
they are also suitable to
be played with
multi-scored parts. The
interpretation of 'S mo
lamh air a stiuir---the
song of a helmsman living
on the Isle of
Skye---should be
interpreted with the
musicians paying careful
attention to its dynamics
and phrasing, which
reflect the up-and-down
motion of the stormy
Artic Ocean. For this
arrangement the key D
minor---which is one
whole tone lower than the
original---has been
chosen to make sure that
the piece is playable,
especially for a clarinet
quartet.
