About this arrangement

Small Ensemble Handbell - Level 3 - Digital Download SKU: A0.1144876 Composed by Irish Folk Song. Arranged by Mark R Lewis. Celtic,Folk,Irish. Score and parts. 2 pages. Mark R Lewis #745195. Published by Mark R Lewis (A0.1144876). The Maid of Culmore is an Irish folk song with surprisingly little documentation. It is thought to date from some time in 1800s from near the city of Culmore, but not much else is known. The city of Culmore was a center for emigration and the lyrics of the song discuss a young man and the search for his love who had moved to America. This version is arranged for 12-bell ensemble by Mark R Lewis for the AGEHR 2022 Composing Masterclass. If played by a quintet or sextet, the piece is simply a matter of counting and keeping track of the melody but if this is played as a trio or quartet, the arrangement will be quite challenging with many instances of a player switching between melody and accompaniment parts multiple times a measure.
