Engaging fantasy piece for band based o 3 Irish tales, very famous, great characters and cummunicative;
Drowsy Maggie e Irish Washerwoman are dance song, while Johnny I hardly knew you ya, is a song against war, composed at the beginning of 1800, when the Irish troops were used to the Indian Conquest.
It is a very evocative piece with an epic and adventurous character. Its rural sense of mystic communion with nature, entrusted to the initial theme played by flute, changes into a more adventurous and emotional form, where different rhythms and orchestral colours alternate.
The initial theme itself often returns played by horn ( or euphonium) and trombone to create a sort of internal thematic coherence. The two opposite feelings evoked by the composition, the rural character and the adventurous one, seem to blend gradually, to lead to a bright and glorious conclusion.
