Hornpipe
| Brolga Music Young Band Series BMC039 |
Level: 2.5 | Duration: 2'40" |
Program Notes
After hearing music used in the successful touring band production Riverdance, Brian West was inspired to write a work for young band with all the vigour and life found in Irish folk music. The modal nature of the work, and the avoidance of traditional "western" chord progressions give Hornpipe its unusual but infectious appeal.
