The Hornpipe is a typical Celtic solo dance, traditionally danced and performed by English sailors. A sound often associated with the Hornpipe is that of the Bódhran, an Irish drum made with a sheep’s skin head. John Nijs has taken great care in creating an authentic-sounding Hornpipe in which the Bódhran part is played by the tambourine, but sounds just as good!

Die Hornpipe ist ein charakteristischer keltischer Solotanz, der traditionell von englischen Seeleuten getanzt wird. Zum typischen Hornpipe-Klang gehört auch die Bódhran, eine mit Ziegenfell bespannte irische Trommel. Auch in dieser authentischen Hornpipe von Johan Nijs ist dieses Instrument vorgesehen, das Stück klingt aber auch mit einem Tamburin wunderbar!

Hornpipe Highlights est dédié aux musiciens de l’Orchestre d’Harmonie Royal Kunst Veredelt d’Ingelmunster en Belgique, et leur chef, Francis Baert. D’origine celte, le hornpipe est une danse en solo, traditionnellement associée aux marins anglais. Au cœur de la musique celtique et irlandaise, figure le bódhran, une sorte de grand tambourin peau de chèvre. Son utilisation dans cette composition, s’imposait comme une évidence.

Si pensa che l’hornpipe derivi dall’olandese horlepiep, importato in Inghilterra da marinai in seguito stabilitisi in Irlanda. Tra gli strumenti tipici di questa danza, citiamo il bodhran, un tamburo di origine celtica ricoperto da una sottile pelle di capra e battuto alle due estremit da un piccolo bastone. Questa brano originale di Johan Nijs fa appello al bodhran, ma può essere sostituito da un tamburin.
