Suite I & II for Baroque Lute and Guitar by Turlough O’Carolan and Jörg Bocklenberg

Description

Thomas Bocklenberg, O’Carolan-Suites I & II

for Lute in G 10 courses or Archlute in G 13 courses, French tablature.

Two suites with 10 movements in total after melodies by the Irish baroque harpist and composer Turlough O’Carolan. Compiled and arranged by Thomas Bocklenberg.
Turlough O’Carolan’s music combines Irish folklore with the stylistic elements of the art music of his time. This quality inspired me to compose two suites based on his melodies. Minor melodic variations, elaborated dynamics and a particular harmonisation characterise my interpretation of his music.

Suite I
I. Planxty Irvine
II. George Brabazon (1st Air)
III. George Brabazon (2nd Air)
IV. Morgan Magan
V. Kean O’Hara (2nd Air)
VI. Dr. John Stafford or Carolan’s Receipt

Suite II
I. Carolan’s Welcome
II. Mrs. Sterling
III. Miss Noble
IV. Mary O’Neill or Carolan’s Favorite Jig
