8Hamilton Harty (1879-1941) was a prolific art-song and orchestral composer as well as a world-renowned conductor. With this new edition in three volumes, you gain access to some of his best-known and most critically acclaimed early songs. It is an essential purchase for both high and low voices looking for Romantic songs with great character and musicians interested in celebrating such a prominent figure in Irish music. This volume includes Three Traditional Ulster Airs (1905), featuring the passionate improvisation on My Lagan Love; and Harty's well-loved set, Six Songs of Ireland (1908), featuring the tender Lullaby. The songs range from passionate and flirtatious love songs to dramatic songs of the sea. The music within these pages also offers great variety and challenge for advanced pianists as true duo partners.
