This haunting melody from the pen of G. F. Handel was used in a 2002 television advert for a well-known brand of jeans. A great addition to your concert programme.
Takeda no Komoriuta (Lullaby of Takeda) is s beautiful Japanese folk song which tells the story of a young girl. The girl was forced to leave her family and village to go to work for a rich family on the other side of a mountain. As the girl worked carrying a baby on her back she thought about her family. Missing them she sang this song to comfort herself.
Playable by any standard of band this has proved to be very popular with audiences.
This is the second piece of Kevin’s space trilogy which takes you on a journey from lift off to exploring space, the journey home and finally landing back on Earth.
Another wonderful addition to your concert repertoire, and audiences love it.
