Carrickfergus is a much-loved traditional Irish song which has been recorded many times by contemporary artists, most famously, Joan Baez.
In making this arrangement I am attempting to create a work suitable for the more-advanced or concert player. My intention has been to use the original theme to construct a piece with structure and harmonic depth.
Carrickfergus is presented here in D major with a mid-way modulation to the dominant - A major.
I am excited at the idea of using well-known themes to create a concert repertoire suitable for all environments and which will appeal to guitarists and non-guitarists alike.
A film and recording of me performing the arrangement can be found in the link given on this page or at danjonesguitarist.com.
I hope very much you enjoy playing Carrickfergus.
