Dorothy van Joolen Barth #45845. Published by Dorothy van Joolen Barth (A0.785017).Green: Songs That Celebrate Our Natural World contains 35 traditional tunes selected from O’Neill’s Music of Ireland, The Gow Collection of Scottish Dance Music, and Playford's Dancing Master and arranged by Dorothy van Joolen Barth for two instruments.

This download is for the entire anthology, with cover, title page, table of contents, and preface included. For musicians who would prefer to download a single section rather than the complete anthology, five separate sectional downloads are also available according to the section titles listed above. As an audio sample, The Brink of the White Rocks is provided here. These arrangements can be played on recorder and violin (which is how we play them), flute and violin, or two violins. If the upper part is played on recorder, the recorder player may switch between soprano, alto, and tenor recorders in accordance with the range and mood of each piece. We generally prefer the soprano recorder on the faster reels, jigs, and hornpipes and the tenor recorder (or sometimes the alto recorder) on the more lyrical pieces. In performing this music, We often create new embellishments, in keeping with Celtic tradition where no two performances of a piece are ever identical. You will likewise add your own meaning to this evocative music. These pieces are delightful perform for Celtic festivals, St. Patrick's Day celebrations, weddings, birthday parties, and theme events. Above all, may this music provide both player and listener with much enjoyment. NEWS: In 2015, we completed a digital recording of Green: Songs That Celebrate Our Natural World. It's available on digital and streaming platforms; just search for it under Kammeraderie.
