The poignant lament “Mo Chile Mear†(My Gallant Hero) was authored after the defeat of the Scots and their Celtic allies at the Battle of Culloden in 1746, ending dreams of independence from English rule. Michael's emotional setting opens with a flute solo then builds gradually as layers of instrumental groups are added. The piece shifts to a lilting 6/8 style, propelled by the percussion section, and culminates in a majestic statement by the entire ensemble.

Continuing the popular format of previous Celtic Air and Dance settings, this work for second year players opens with the tender Irish ballad Ned of the Hill. The dance segment combines two popular Irish polkas with the melodies skillfully traded between various sections of the band. Perfect for teaching both legato and detached styles, and also keeping the percussion engaged.
