In Celtic folklore, a œselkie is a mythical creature appearing as a seal in water, but taking human form on land. In this striking setting for second-year players the first movement, in a lyric and melancholy style, portrays the selkie as a baby seal. The second movement depicts a young boy on land and employs a number of characteristics of traditional Scottish folk tunes. This marvelous work provides opportunities for musical and cross-curricular exploration. Dur: 3:50
