Description

Arrangement of the old Ulster folk song “I’ll tell my ma when I get home” (The Belle of Belfast city) for alto flute duo.

The original song begins:
I’ll tell me ma, when I go home
The boys won’t leave the girls alone
They pulled my hair, they stole my comb
But that’s alright, ’til I go home
She is handsome, she is pretty
She is the belle of Belfast city
She is a-courting one, two, three
Please, won’t you tell me who is she?
