Skye Waulking Song - Capercaillie
Waulking
Name given to the process of pounding tweed cloth - work women undertook by hand in Scotland in the 1950s
Waulking songs helped women to work in time with each other and call-and-response was used
Album: Nadurra
Released in 2000
The text from this song is taken from a long lament called 'John, Son of the King of Ireland'
Instrumentation and Texture
Layered texture
Rhythmic pattern on drum kit
Bass line played by bass guitar
Chords on synthesiser and accordion
Main melody sung by voice
Countermelodies played by other instruments
Fiddle, Wurlitzer piano (electric piano), uileann pipes (similar to bag pipes) and bouzouki (a type of lute that comes from Greece)
In the score:
'N.C' means 'no chord' - accompaniment drops out
'With modulation' means that modulation is applied to the synthesiser chord, making the pitch fluctuate.
A cluster chord opens the song - a chord whose notes are all next to each other
Structure
Four different phrases (each lasting for 1 bar) in a call-and-response pattern
Phrase 1: call (in Gaelic, starts on a high D)
Refrain 1: response (vocables, starts on a mid B)
Phrase 2: call (in Gaelic, starts on a low D)
Refrain 2: response (vocables, starts on a high E)
Overall structure:
1) Introduction: an instrumental section, after which the voice enters
2) Verse 1: voice and accompaniment
3) Verse 2: voice and accompaniment (includes instrumental break)
4) Coda: short vocal phrases echo the end of refrain 1, after which the accompaniment fades out
Melody
Pentatonic
Low register voice
Mainly syllabic
Alternates between one-bar phrases in Gaelic (call) and phrases that use vocables (response)
Instrumentalists play short motifs and countermelodies based on the vocal phrases
Rhythm and Metre
Compound quadruple metre: 12/8
Frequent syncopation
Hi-hat pattern creates cross rhythms at the start. When the full band enters, it changes and more clearly emphasizes 12/8
Harmony
G major
Diatonic
Three main chords: G, Em and C
The dominant chord is avoided, giving the music a modal feel
