Original

Irish Festival composed by Quincy C. Hilliard. For concert band. Concert Band. FJH Young Band. Score only. Full set. score and parts. also available. B1188. Grade 2.5. Score only. Duration 4 minutes, 27 seconds. Published by The FJH Music Company Inc. FJ.B1188S. Quincy C. Hilliard uses two Irish folksongs as the inspiration for this new festival work. A drone opens the work which quickly moves to a simple, yet creative setting of The Last Rose of Summer. A slow, lyrical treatment of the same folk song serves as the middle section of the piece. The final section is based on The Rake of Mallow and makes use of ample percussion as the piece propels toward a powerful conclusion. Appropriate for middle school and smaller high school groups. Second clarinets usually stay below the break. Parts are written with more independence, and instrumentation increases slightly. There is still adequate doubling in the lower voices. Grades 2 - 2.5.
