Skye Waulking Song - Capercaillie
Context
Waulking: A traditional process used for making tweed fabric more flexible and waterproof
Waulking Song: Sung to keep everyone in time and to make work sociable and more fun
From the album 'Nadurra' released in 2000
Scottish folk music sung in Gaelic
The song is a Lament [Song of grief]
The title translates to 'My father sent me to a house of sorrow'
Instrumentation
Bouzouki [folk]
Accordian [folk]
Uillean Pipes [folk]
Synthesiser [pop]
Drum Kit [pop]
Fiddle [folk]
Piano [pop]
Acoustic Guitar [pop]
Electric Bass Guiar [pop]
Structure
Repetitive and Strophic
Introduction
Ambient voice on keyboard playing a sustained Em9 chord
Fiddle plays tremolo
Drums enter together with a tremolo electric piano which plays in counterpoint with the Bouzouki
Bass plays staccato together with a bass drum
Key is now Eminor
Ambiguous time signature - feels like 6/8 [duple] or 12/8 [quadruple] but the shaker and high-hat play in triple metre
Verse 1
Instruments play same as in the introduction
Voice comes in with the title of the song
Cross rhythms between voice and other instruments, making the metre ambiguous
Break
Fiddle plays more effects than melody, along with the backing instruments
Verse 2
Voice is the main rhythmic feature, singing in 12/8 time [compund quadruple]
Verse 3
Last line is sung unaccompanied [accapella]
Verse 4
Accordion joins in along with a strummed acoustic guitar and bouzouki accompaniment
Backing vocals join in with nonsense syllables
Drum parts also play in 12/8 time
Bass part is more prominent
Chord sequence changes to C / G / Em / G
Verse 5
Same as Verse 4
Accordion plays countermelodies to the vocal part
Verse 6
Same as Verse 5
Instrumental
Uillean Pipes solo along with the fiddle in heterophonic texture [similar melody in slightly different ways]
Accordion provides accompaniment and sometimes doubles the melody
Instruments [especially accordion] emphasise beats 2 and 5, adding rhythmic interest
Verse 7
Chord sequence changes to Am7 / Em / Em / G for this verse only
Dynamics reduce so that the voices can be more prominent [backing vocals sing nonsense syllables]
All instruments stop for the last line
Drums build up to the last verse
Verse 8
Chord sequence returns to C / G / Em / G
Full band plays
Outro
Vocals improvise to the nonsense syllables
Instruments weave a counterpoint with each other
Chords alternate between C and G for the remainder of the song
Call and Response
Polyphonic texture
Tonality
Ambiguous key a the beginning
Modal
Aeolian Mode of E [or E minor] is established by the end of the introduction
Key seems to change to G major in Verse 4
In Verse 7 the song briefly returns to E minor before changing again to G major
Texture
Starting with the synthesiser and fiddle, the texture builds up gradually, introducing other instruments after 9 seconds
Texture is thin to begin with
Bouzouki and keyboard play interweaving melody
Texture becomes monophonic when the voice sings on its own
After the first 33 seconds the voices join in, adding to the thin, polyphonic texture
Melody
Made up of C, G and Em chords
Based on a pentatonic scale
G major
Strophic [same melody in each verse]
Rhythm
Begins 6/4 time
Bass guiar contradicts by playing 12/8 but occasionally displaces the metric accent to suit the 6/4 rhythms
Switches to 12/8 occasionally
Dynamics
Begins on the keyboard playing a sustained Em9 chord softly [piano - quiet]
After about 3 verses the beat picks up introducing more instruments and therefore the dynamics increase making it more upbeat
