The Pulse of an Irishman
Irish and Scottish Songs arranged by Beethoven
Early in the nineteenth century, George Thomson
was concerned that the traditional songs of the British Isles were
being
lost. In an effort to preserve them, he commissioned arrangements from
the finest composers of his time, including Ludwig van Beethoven.
Beethoven
tackled the commission enthusiastically, although not without some
grumbling
regarding his fee. This new recording offers a selection of these
entertaining
and unjustly neglected pieces. All songs are performed in English, as
intended
by Beethoven and are accompanied with piano, violin and cello.
The Pulse of an Irishman features singers Steven
Stull, Timothy LeFebvre, Kimberly LaGraff, Linda Larson and Todd
Geer,
accompanied by violinist Brian Brooks, cellist Laura Kramer and pianist
Kathy Hansen. Recordings are available directly from CRS Barn and from
the
