  • Traditional Music of Scotland
    Traditional Music of Scotland A Journey to the Musical World of Today Abstract Immigrants from Scotland have been arriving in the States since the early 1600s, bringing with them various aspects of their culture, including music. As different cultures from around Europe and the world mixed with the settled Scots, the music that they played evolved. For my research project, I will investigate the progression of “traditional” Scottish music in the United States, and how it deviates from the progression of the same style of music in Scotland itself, specifically stylistic changes, notational changes, and changes in popular repertoire. I will focus on the relationship of this progression to the interactions of the two countries throughout history. To conduct my research, I will use non-fiction sources on the history of Scottish music, Scottish culture and music in the United States, and Scottish immigration to and interaction with the United States. Beyond material sources, I will contact my former Scottish fiddle teacher, Elke Baker, who conducts extensive study of ethnomusicology relating to Scottish music. In addition, I will gather audio recordings of both Scots and Americans playing “traditional” Scottish music throughout recent history to compare and contrast according to their dates. My background in Scottish music, as well as in other American traditional music styles, will be an aid as well. I will be able to supplement my research with my own collection of music by close examination. To culminate my project, I plan to compose my own piece of Scottish music that incorporates and illustrates the progression of the music from its first landing to the present.

  • Medley Construction
    CONSTRUCTING A PIPE BAND MEDLEY FOR COMPETITION By P/M Brett Tidswell, National Piping and Ensemble Adjudicator HISTORY Pipe Bands used to perform March, Strathspey and Reel sets only in competition. In the 1950’s the Edinburgh Police under PM Donald Shaw Ramsay started to incorporate hornpipes and jigs into their repertoire and shortly after, the medley was introduced into competition to allow bands a wider variety of music and to give play to some of the smaller tunes that bands seemed to be overlooking. The medley has now developed into a complex structure rather than a few nice tunes thrown together. The intention of this article is to highlight some of the methods used to construct an entertaining and musical medley. The guidelines in no way are meant to inhibit the compiler/composer, however, good musical taste and some adherence to tradition are still called for when compiling a medley for competition. Scottish Power LENGTH There are obviously constraints when compiling a competition medley as distinct from a concert medley. The first of these is the length. Generally in higher grades the rules require a 5 – 7 minute medley and a lesser time in the lower grades. Ensure that you check the rules and test the length of the medley from the first roll until the end of the performance, at tempo. ©schoolofpiping.com Page 1 INTRODUCTION Again there is often a rule constraint here. Most call for two three pace rolls with the band stepping off on the first beat of the roll. If you are trying to be inventive and vary from this, it is best to check the rules of the Associations who have jurisdiction in the places you intend to compete.

  • Dance the Highland Fling
    Dance the Highland Fling Liina Flynn | 21st July 2011 When I was growing up, my Scottish grandmother taught me how to dance the Highland Fling. With arms flung above my head, I hopped on my feet moving one leg behind the other as I chanted “shed, behind, before, behind”. The footsteps of the dance were taught to me in an old chant that explained a pattern of fabric weaving and helped me to remember which steps came next. One theory about the Highland Fling is that it originated as a dance of triumph at the end of a battle; another says it was danced on top of a shield before battle, to ward away evil spirits. So, with highland dancing and its militaristic origins on my mind, I took my tartan heart and my (sort of) nimble feet and Scottish country dancing enthusiasts Judy Cook and Andrew Ross. went to learn more about Scottish dancing. When I arrived at a Scottish country dancing class in Lismore, rather than launching into a solo Highland Fling, I was prepared to take part in a group dancing lesson with guided instructions. I had heard about the formal Scottish dance „The Gay Gordons‟, but dancing instructor Judy Cook tells me it‟s a pretty ordinary dance and closer to ballroom dancing than Scottish country dance. Instead, tonight we‟ll be doing dances like Galloping Carousel, Campbell‟s Frolic, Dancing Bees, and Good Hearted Glasgow. Scottish country dancing usually requires at least six or eight people to be able to form a set, but while we‟re waiting for other people to arrive, Judy wants to teach us Domino Five, a dance that only requires five people.
