Chattanooga Choo Choo is a 1941 song written by Mack Gordon and composed by Harry Warren. It was originally recorded as a big band/swing tune by Glenn Miller and His Orchestra and featured in the 1941 movie Sun Valley Serenade. It was the first song to receive a gold record, presented by RCA Victor in 1942, for sales of 1.2 million copies.
The song opens up with the band, sounding like a train rolling out of the station, complete with the trumpets and trombones imitating a train whistle, before the instrumental portion comes in playing two parts of the main melody. This is followed by the vocal introduction of four lines before the main part of the song is heard.

The main song opens with a dialog between a passenger and a shoeshine boy:

Pardon me, boy, is that the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
Yes, yes, Track 29!
Boy, you can give me a shine.
Can you afford to board the Chattanooga Choo Choo?
I've got my fare, and just a trifle to spare.

The singer describes the train's route, originating from Pennsylvania Station in New York and running through Baltimore to North Carolina before reaching Chattanooga. He mentions a woman he knew from an earlier time in his life, who will be waiting for him at the station and with whom he plans to settle down for good. After the entire song is sung, the band plays two parts of the main melody as an instrumental, with the instruments imitating the WHOO WHOO of the train as the song ends.

Here's my representation thereof with Sam Harrill's nifty percussion score supporting it.

Diamond in the Rough. Celtic music song composed by Gustavo Fuentes, arranged for two voices. Two melody instruments, such as tin whistle, low whistle, flute, recorder, piano or violin, with chords for piano or guitar. The audio is from to the Gustavo Fuentes CD Almas en vuelo that you can listen to on Spotify.
The most important symbol of Celtic art is the triskelion. It is made up of three curved legs representing the past, the present and the future. It can also symbolize the balance between mind, body and spirit; the beginning and the end; or constant learning versus eternal evolution.
Life is a timeline. Memories from the past can sometimes evoke pleasant images and beautiful experiences in our minds, but they can also fill us with sadness and nostalgia. Thinking of the future can give us hope, but it can also awaken anxiety. The only time when we can truly be, make decisions, and effect change is the present. Today is a gift, a diamond in the rough that we can cut and polish to our liking. Quoting the wise words of Irish author Oscar Wilde in The Picture of Dorian Grey: Life is a moment. There is no hereafter. So make it burn always with the hardest flame.

Canción de música celta compuesta por Gustavo Fuentes, arreglada para dos voces agudas como tin-whistle, low whistle, flauta traversa, flauta dulce, piano o violín, con cifrado de acordes para piano o guitarra. El audio pertenece al CD de Gustavo Fuentes Almas en vuelo, que se puede escuchar completo en Spotify.
El símbolo más importante del arte celta es el trisquel. Formado por tres brazos en espiral representan el pasado, el presente y el futuro, y simboliza el equilibrio entre cuerpo, mente y espíritu, el principio y el fin, el aprendizaje perpetuo y la eterna evolución.
Nuestra vida está construida en el tiempo. A veces el pasado nos trae recuerdos gratos y experiencias hermosas; en otros momentos, nos llena de melancolía y añoranza. El futuro puede generarnos esperanza, pero también ansiedad. El único momento donde podemos ser, donde podemos elegir, donde podemos cambiar, es el presente. Deberíamos considerar el ahora como una verdadera joya, como un diamante que podemos tallar y lustrar para que tenga la forma y el brillo que merecemos. Y estaría bien recordar las palabras que el escritor irlandés Oscar Wilde nos dejó en El retrato de Dorian Grey: La vida es el presente, el futuro no existe. Haz que la vida arda siempre con la llama más intensa.

Instrumental Duet Flute,Instrumental Duet,Violin - Level 2 - Digital Download

SKU: A0.1011232

Composed by Matt Schwarz. Celtic,Contemporary,Folk,World. Score and parts. 2 pages. Matthew H Schwarz #6079933. Published by Matthew H Schwarz (A0.1011232).

An Irish flute solo I wrote for my Grandfather's funeral.  It starts off pensive and sentimental, to reflect the sorrow of losing a loved one, but then takes on an exuberant feel to celebrate a life well lived.  

There are two pages - page 2 is in D Minor for classical C flute and other C instruments (to match the recording), while the first page is in E Minor for Irish flute or tinwhistle in D.  The overall range is just over 2 octaves:  C4 (middle C) to D6 for C flute or D4 to E6 for D flutes.  It also plays well on violin.
