This is a new engraving of what is perhaps one of Grainger’s best-loved and most well-known works. Based on two Irish reels, Molly on the Shore is not simply an arrangement of these folk tunes, but takes the melodies and runs with them, allowing them to mutate and giving them imaginative new contexts.
