5. MEMO FROM OCEANS APART

April/May 2007

We all seem to have survived the merry month of March. It seems to get longer/fuller every year, and I can't help but wonder what Patrick, David and the early Saints would have made of it all. Still, April and May are upon us now ... a great time to be in the desert, or for that matter anywhere under the friendly sun.

Oceans Apart, the ICC and Welsh League of Arizona will be hosting a concert this May 3rd. at the ICC, with the master Welsh harper Robin Huw Bowen sure to thrill attendees with his gypsy harpestry. He will also be recording with Oceans Apart for a future project, and that has us sitting on the edge of our stools! More about that later.

Hope to see you out and about this spring.

________________________________________________________________________
--- NOTE TO EDITORS: BACKGROUND ON HIGHLAND DANCING

Highland Dancing: Most of the true Highland dances are connected with ancient Scottish folk customs. The present form had been developed through the centuries and been refined into its now general form; however, the original basic steps and themes have been passed through the years.

Highland dances were originally only performed by men, but today there are far more women who perform these dances.

The Highland dances are performed solo, and have precise, difficult movements and require much stamina and co-ordination. They are also regarded as being one of the most sophisticated forms of national dances in the world.

Highland dancing is most commonly done to bagpipes, and the version pipers play today dates back to the 16th century. The music itself consists of the melody, which is played on the chanter, backed by continuous and unvarying tones from the three drone pipes.

The most commonly known Highland dances are the Sword Dance and Highland Fling, other frequently performed dances are the Sean Triubhas, the Sailor’s Hornpipe, the Irish Jig, and the Strathspey and Highland Reel.
