from Compositions by Nuala Kennedy
This hornpipe emerged over the lockdown period while myself and fiddler Liz Carroll were in conversation about tunes and life in general. We would correspond often, and at the time I had a nuisance neighbour – who would come out to bang his bins loudly and rattle the front door! After an amusing discussion on this subject one night, Liz wrote an appropriately annoying hornpipe entitled ‘Bang the Bins’ and in response I came up with this tune ‘Rattle the Doors’ to go with it.
