Reviews

  • 'I love the melody to which the opening lines are set; it flows so simply yet so beautifully in triple time, giving real tranquillity and restfulness to the music. The flattened 7ths and gentle scotch snaps within the melodic lines and the open 5ths in the piano writing all help to give the piece its wonderful Scottish character and charm. The highpoint for me is the very simple refrain, lullaby-like in mood, with which each verse ends; the simplicity of this line set against the quaver movement of the upper piano part is extremely effective.' -Music Teacher March 2003

The specification in this catalogue, including without limitation price, format, extent, number of illustrations, and month of publication, was as accurate as possible at the time the catalogue was compiled.
