680160922444. The
Rocky Road to Dublin is a
song written by Irish
poet D. K. Gavan in the
mid-nineteenth century
for English music-hall
performer Harry Clifton
and tells the story of an
Irish man leaving his
hometown of Tuam in the
county of Galway in
Ireland to go to Dublin
to make money. Because of
the Great Potato Famine
at that time, large
groups of Irish folks
left their hometowns
looking for food and
work. Thousands ended up
in America, in
particular, Philadelphia,
where many made their way
south through the
Appalachian mountains,
settling in southwest
Virginia, western North
Carolina and eastern
Tennessee. As the Irish
began their new lives
here in America, they
would often sing these
songs, which would bring
back fond memories of
their homeland. Many
old-time fiddle tunes can
be traced to Irish music,
including this song.
However, their music
changed as the songs were
passed around through
other cultures in the
mountains, with new
verses about their new
lives. Often the tunes
and lyrics made their way
back overseas where they
would change yet again,
so there are many
versions of these songs
found in both Ireland and
America. This setting is
close to the original and
can be found in both
places. It gets to the
heart of having to leave
one’s home to seek
a better life.This tune
is a fun one and should
be played with a lilt
until m. 43. At this
point, the original
material is more legato,
but returns at m. 59 in
the alto saxophone. Let
the percussion play on
their solis, especially
at the end where some of
them answer the band
motifs. The straight
eighth notes (as at m.
29) will perhaps look
difficult to younger
players, but once they
understand the concept,
it will be a favorite
part. Have fun! $65.00 - Voir plus => AcheterDélais: 24 hours - In Stock | | |
