Description
This suite features three Canadian folk songs, each with a contrasting style, meter, and key. Beginning with "The False Young Man" in a delicate, light fashion, it continues with the beautiful "The Maid on the Shore"---a folk song from Newfoundland---finally, the suite closes with the powerful "Bold Wolfe." This charismatic series of musical vignettes will offer the opportunity to reinforce a wide variety of musical concepts. (4:00)
