In the spirit of the composer's now-famous Farewell to Stromness, this suite of short pieces takes its inspiration from the northern Orkney island of Sanday on which he lives. In three beautiful piano miniatures he captures the special character of the Knowes o' Yarrow, Waters of Woo and Kettletoft Pier.

This book is most suitable for Grade 5 performers, pianists of a higher standard will also enjoy sightreading these short but sweet pieces.
This suite is a notable addition to the repertoire that sits well next to other Celtic miniatures from James Macmillan, Ronald Stevenson and Erik Chisholm
The new collection of pieces from 'max' takes off from this earlier miniature, and should be useful and enjoyable for grade 5 plus students of all ages.
