It has been re-issued on the Chandos &#8216;Collect&#8217; label (CHAN 6643) to commemorate Tommy Reilly&#8217;s death in the autumn of 2001, and makes a very fine companion to this published collection.<\/p>\n<p>The original idea behind each piece was to take the familiar folk song as a theme and to embellish it in as many different styles as possible. For example, the \u201cSkye Boat Song\u201d reminds us of a gently swaying gondola; \u201cEarly One Morning\u201d reflects they hustle and bustle of dawn; \u201cMy Love is Like a Red, Red Rose\u201d is in the style of Chopin; \u201cCherry Ripe\u201d is a sailor&#8217;s hornpipe and \u201cDashing Away with the Smoothing Iron\u201d expresses the frustration of an everlasting chore.<\/p>\n<p>Many friends have requested copies of this music over the years so I have decided to adapt the songs for flute (or violin or oboe) and harp. They can be played in any chosen group of songs as a suite or individually. A small group of the pieces are suitable for the clarsach<\/p>\n<p>I dedicate this volume to Tommy Reilly.<\/p>\n<p>Skaila Kanga<\/p>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<audio class=\"wp-audio-shortcode\" id=\"audio-47152-9\" preload=\"none\" style=\"width: 100%;\" controls=\"controls\"><source type=\"audio\/mpeg\" src=\"https:\/\/harpcolumn.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/06\/Folk-Songs-from-the-British-Isles\u2014Vol-2.mp3?_=9\" \/><a href=\"https:\/\/harpcolumn.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/06\/Folk-Songs-from-the-British-Isles\u2014Vol-2.mp3\">https:\/\/harpcolumn.com\/music\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2019\/06\/Folk-Songs-from-the-British-Isles\u2014Vol-2.mp3<\/a><\/audio>\n<p><em>Folk Songs from the British Isles\u2014Vol 2<\/em> includes 8 traditional pieces arranged by Skaila Kanga for flute (or violin or oboe) and pedal harp (three pieces are suitable for lever harp with adaptations).
