Ron Kean uses a text by William Butler Yeats and appropriately dons it with an Irish musical dressing. The flute is really not an optional addition. You are easily transported to the region through this character piece that dances and flourishes in the land it celebrates. A delightful fugal section bounces with a dum didle dee; text eventually emerging into a colorful, and thoughtful singing section. For advanced high school and college choirs. Medium to difficult. |
