    Once again Ceadach (or Chad-ji as he was once called by the illustrious Ravi Shankar himself) demonstrates his amazing versatility at not only understanding musical flows, but playing within them. The fact that my former bandmate is an immaculate composer as well does not surprise me in the slightest. I had the privilege of performing alongside him for years and his yearning for traditional irish music was deeply embedded. I even lived with him for a while and saw first hand how he ate, slept, and breathed music. As a result, it is no surprise to me whatsoever that Chad composed and performed such a beautiful piece. Well done, old friend.

    boaire- yes the left hand is playing a ground or "measure" hence the title of the piece. The structure of the piece is fairly defined, but leaves some room for improvisational elements. The idea for this piece comes from my study of older music like the ap Huw manuscript and Ceol Mhor; both at their most basic level are theme and variation type forms. Here the left hand provides an ostinato (which changes occasionally- it gets transposed, the rhythm varies, etc.) and the right hand plays differing but set patterns over the ground pattern.
