Swan-Upmanship is an album by the Old Swan … Swan-Upmanship is an album by the Old Swan Band. Although these (mostly) obscure tunes come from England, Ireland, Scotland, France and Sweden, the band puts a distinctively English stamp on all of them. Firstly they are taken at a steady, unhurried pace. This is a dance, not a race. Secondly, the style of the decoration is unfussy. Celtic bands often insert a "triplet" when there is a slight gap in the melody, creating a kind of "fill". English traditional country dance bands tend to leave the gap there. This gives the tunes an "open" confident feel to them. Instead, the most frequent decoration these tunes are given is something that only fiddles can do - they do a "swoop" into the opening note of the melody. Finally there is the percussion. Celtic bands tend to have a bodhran, a snare drum (particularly Scottish bands) or else there is no percussion. Here Martin Brinsford uses a huge variety of blocks, tambourines and shakers to give a certain swing to the quartet of fiddles. Sometimes there is a cheeky little syncopation. Irish music also uses syncopation, but only in short doses. Running time 59 minutes 56 seconds. Released 2004.time 59 minutes 56 seconds. Released 2004.
