Description:
This symphonic treatment of three Canadian folk songs has exciting parts for all instruments. A hauntingly beautiful setting of She's Like the Swallow is contrasted with the driving energy of the outer tunes, Old Sod Shanty and Saint-Malo beau port de mer. Toward the end, an easy fugue sets up a powerful ostinato in the upper strings before the piece drives to an exciting conclusion.
