Johnnie Vinson: Selkie: Concert Band: Score

A Scottish Legend-In Celtic folklore a selkie is a mythical creature appearing as a seal in water but taking human form on land. In this striking setting for second year players the first movement in a lyric and melancholy style portrays the selkie as a baby seal. The second movement depicts a young boy on land and employs a number of characteristics of traditional Scottish folk tunes. This marvelous work provides opportunities for musical and cross-curricular exploration. Dur: 3:50
