Full Orchestra - Level 4 - Digital Download SKU: A0.731851 Composed by Irish Traditional. Arranged by Thomas Quigley. Celtic,Concert,Folk,Holiday. Score and parts. 142 pages. Thomas Quigley #3399257. Published by Thomas Quigley (A0.731851). Based on the jig Saint Patrick's Day and a hymn tune DĆ³chas Linn Naomh PĆ”draig, this colorfully orchestrated piece is an ideal concert item at any time, but particularly on (or close to) St. Patrick's Day. The dance tune is very well known and provides an exciting opening before the hymn. Here, the orchestra builds to a climax with a full-textured rendition, after which a new version of the jig is heard, but now transformed into a reel. This is a most appealing and well-crafted overture, always very suitably harmonized. It is a glowing orchestral tribute to Ireland's patron Saint.(Duration 5:00).
