Programme Note

 
  1. The Star of the County Down
  2. She Moved through the Fair
  3. Merrily Kiss the Quaker's Wife
 
 
 
 

These three pieces take famous Irish tunes, pull them apart and then (almost) put them back together. The first is dedicated to the memory of my maternal grandmother, Esther Mary Evans (née Gamble), whose family came from Banbridge, Co. Down.
