Getting to the heart of having to leave one's home to seek a better life, this mid-19th-century Irish song is given an authentic yet unique treatment in a setting for younger bands. Starting with a lilting upper woodwind melody and hand percussion, an expressive legato section follows before a return to the original material. Percussionists have several soli sections where they get a chance to shine. With a brisk tempo, well-written percussion parts, and plenty of dynamic contrasts, this is an excellent choice for concert and festival performances.
