Composed by Robin Andrews. Celtic,Folk,World. Score and parts. 1 pages. Robin Andrews #3367015. Published by Robin Andrews (A0.1028114).There's not many tunes written in the Lydian mode, so harmonising them presents an interesting creative challenge. The basic idea here is that the chords from a D major scale are used, but the "home" note is G. Also, the strong A-D cadence is lost, so we have to find another cadence which will provide a similar tension/release effect. In the Lydian mode this can be achieved with Bm-G, A-G or Em-G. One really interesting aspect of the Lydian mode in G is that Em is still the relative minor, except it comes out as Dorian. So if the B part of a tune tune moves to the relative minor as this one does, then it can be treated as an E Dorian tune in its own right.
