Info

In "Caledonia", Oliver Waespi adapted three well-known Scottish folk songs into a rhapsodic suite for wind orchestra. The first, rather humorous song, "The Devil Came Fiddling Through the Town", tells the story of a devil who, as he passes through the streets of the town, catches the tax inspector and carries him off, much to the delight of the inhabitants. The second song, "Ye banks and braes", is gentle and melancholy and based partly on the folk song "Hey, tuttie tattie". Oliver Waespi took a symphonic approach to the adaptation of these lovely songs, which makes this a unique and innovative suite that can be performed at a concert or contest. The individual parts can also be performed separately.
