The Wren: A Breton An Dro by Kathleen Blackwell-Plank

Kathleen Blackwell-Plank collected the traditional Breton folk tune, The Wren. The An Dro is a circle or line dance in 4/4 meter. This arrangement in E minor is the second movement of Blackwell-Plank's collection "Song of the Wren: A Celtic Suite." The feisty little bird, the wren is featured in folk songs from across the Celtic traditions. The suite includes songs from Brittany, Ireland and the Shetland Isles of Scotland. In this video, the music is accompanied by Blackwell-Plank's watercolor paintings of wrens.
