"Rocky Road to Dublin" is a 19th-century Irish song.
It tells of the trials and experiences of a young man as he travels to Liverpool in England, via Dublin, from his rural home in Tuam, Ireland.
The piece is a favourite instrumental in 9/8 time. It has the characteristics of a slip jig, with five accents in the bar, on quavers 1,3,4,6 and7. These can be heard in the first bar in guitar 1. In the sung version, the singer sings ‘1, 2, 3, 4, 5’ to correspond with these.
This arrangement balances the melodic interest across all four guitar parts. It is suitable for intermediate/advanced players.
A split screen video of the arranger performing the piece will be uploaded here before the end of March 2021.
