Walt Disney's 'Darby O'Gill and the Little People' Fiddle scene music
Hi, I've loved this old Disney film since I was a youngster, and the two main parts that stood out were this fiddle scene and the banshee part. Yep, I know......two completely different scenes. Anyway, I took a wee notion a while back to try and find the sheet music for this fiddle scene, but could I find it, not a bit of it. Apparently the piece is called the Fox Chase but upon looking this up online, there were a hell of a lot of Fox Chase versions around. Now this scene's music was written by the composer Oliver Wallace (1887 - 1963) and was based on the traditional Irish folk song The Fox Chase. Because I couldn't find any sheet music anywhere I had to play back a YouTube video of the scene over and over again until I notated as much of the audio that I could. I recorded myself playing the main fiddle part on my iOS GarageBand and notated the rest of the instruments that you can hear in my video, using the OSX music software 'Notion' (version 4.0) and also Garritan's Aria Player. The VST plugins that the software has sound amazing and the range of instruments available is just brilliant. Here's a link to view all the Presonus products: http://www.presonus.com/products/software http://www.garritan.com/powered-by-aria-player/ Don't forget to click on my subscribe link for more violin covers: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UC8InOTFx_97qVEEZ37AnLyw?sub_confirmation=1 Anyway, I hope you enjoy both my music and the wee video itself, the scenic footage, I took last year just up the road where I live, and you can see Slieve Binnian in the footage. The wee derelict cottage would have been a Mourne family's home 70 - 80 years back, just something like the ones you would actually see in the Darby O'Gill film itself. For any of you who are keen hikers and ramblers, I've included a wee link here http://www.walkni.com/walks/67/slieve-binnian/ which will give you an idea of the area. Thanks a million for watching and for listening to my rambling on here, sorry about that.
