Left Handed March MP3

This piece was commissioned from Brian by Daniel Figgis for three performances as part of the Snakes and Ladders festival in the National Concert Hall Dublin, Wexford Opera House, and SymphonySpace in Broadway. The piece is loosely based on the descriptive piece Máirseáil Alustrum from the Canon Goodman collection of music from the Munster region. The first and second parts are reworkings with new arrangement of two parts of Máirseáil Alustrum. The third is an arrangement of the melody Steornabhagh / Stornoway originally a psalm melody from the Western Isles of Scotland. The last piece is newly composed.
