Inspired by the many hardships of the Irish immigrants, this piece brings hope of a new world, a new lease on life and a second chance. The piece begins with the sound of the ocean in the background (played by the ocean drum) while a solo flute plays the main theme. As the piece develops the theme represents several scenes: first, the knowledge that life needs to change due to the famine and hardships of the time; second, the immigrants begin their move to America; third, the arrival in America and seeing the statue of Liberty, which is the climactic moment of the piece; and finally, ending with the same idea in the beginning of the piece but now as memory and longing for Ireland.

Carrickfergus is a city in Northern Ireland, and this Irish folk song of the same name has been sung for more than 300 years. It is about a person longing to be home, but the sea is wide and he or she can't cross over. The person laments that as aging occurs, friends and family are missed more and more. One of the most beautiful melodies I've ever heard, it has been performed by soloists Charlotte Church, Joan Baez, and Jackie Evanko and groups, The Chieftains and Celtic Woman. I hope you enjoy singing this beautiful Irish folk song!

SATB choir - You will feel as if you traveled to Ireland in this celebratory anthem by Mark Hayes. Triplet figures in the violin and flute and the use of hand drums and tambourine lend a Celtic air that is simply infectious. The crowning glory, though, is the refrain based on the hymntune, TERRA BEATA.
