This unique collection celebrates the contemporary fiddle music of northeast Ireland, much of it for the first time in print. Not surprisingly, given its location and long history of traditional music, the fiddle music of this region shares some characteristics with Scottish music, yet it has its own distinct style. For those who are not familiar with this ruggedly attractive part of Ireland, this book will introduce you to some of its music and musicians. The tunes presented here, collected by County Antrim fiddler, Rowan Leslie, have all been written relatively recently by local musicians. Each tune is offered in two versions?one with the barebones melody and suggested accompaniment chords, and a second with ornamentation, articulation and bowing details. All tune types from northeast Ireland are represented, including jigs and reels, polkas and hornpipes, marches, barn dances and waltzes, plus set dances and slow airs. Moreover, the biographical sketches and backstories provided for each composer and tune demonstrate how the land itself, along with personal experiences and relationships, influence the fiddle music of northeast Ireland.

Text by Sylvia Dunstan.
A lovely Epiphany hymn with a lyrical melody that calls upon the Daystar to lead us on to where the promise shines. It makes a passing reference to the gifts of gold, frankincense, and myrrh but is not at all about Magi from the East.Â

A creative combination of two texts appropriate for Christmas or Epiphany. Eugene Field was an American writer best known for his children's poetry. His poem Star of the East describes the events from the gospel of Matthew in which wise men from the East came to Jerusalem. The composer skillfully includes PUER NOBIS by Michael Praetorius. Children's choir or an ensemble of treble voices join the chorus to bring the piece to a close. A beautiful trumpet descant is included, often reinforcing the PUER NOBIS tune.
