1 Singing Strings: Beginners Reel 2 Howgate Waltz: written for the children of Howgate Primary School 3 An Eriskay Love Lilt 4 Triad Duet: simple root position triads make an effective accompaniment. 5 Caprice and Doloroso: Two pieces of contrasting mood. Play them as individual tunes, or join them together with a smooth lever change as Caprice- Doloroso-Caprice. 6 Brahms Lullaby 7 Strusaidh mi na Coilleagan - The Cockle Gatherer is one of many lively and rhythmic working songs from the Gaelic tradition. 8 Old Lament: A beautiful melody in the Dorian mode found in the Gesto Collection from Skye. 9 Buain na Rainich - Pulling Bracken-yet another traditional working song, this time in rather a wistful mood. 10 An Ataireachd Ard - The Surge of the Sea: an emigrants longing to return home and finally be buried beside the sound of the surging sea. 11 Song without Words: originally written for a student with a temporarily disabled right hand! |
