Katlyn Morgan Smith is an eighth grade student at Connetquot Middle School. She began playing violin and piano at the age of five and is currently studying under Anton Polezhayev who was part of the New York Philharmonic. Katlyn is an active participant in Connetquot Middle School’s Tri-M Honor Society, orchestra and chamber orchestra. Katlyn and her sister Ashley Smith formed their own ensemble, and were booked by Live Nation to perform at Westbury Music Fair and other fundraising performances. They also recorded at Sound City Cove Studios and have many music videos on YouTube. She participates in LISFA, NYSSMA, SCMEA, and was recently the Grand Prix winner at the International

Concert Festival Competition and will be performing at Weill Recital Hall at Carnegie Hall in March. Katlyn has recently been seated with and participated in the rehearsals and concerts with professional orchestras. Her aspiration this year is to prepare and participate in the Menuhin Competition in 2020. Katlyn would like to thank her parents, her instructors, arrangers, and The Metropolitan Youth Orchestra of New York for her success. “My passion for music has always come from my heart. It brings people together, it makes them feel emotion, and it brings them back to their favorite memories.”

As a composer with deep family roots in Ireland, the rich tapestry of Irish mythology and folklore seemed a natural place to look for inspiration. Irish myths are replete with epic adventures and journeys to the Otherworld, islands far west of Ireland. The Voyage of the Uí Chorra (the Sons of O’Corra) tells of a couple who, unable to have children and desperate to do so, make a deal with the devil. The three sons born to them thereafter grow up to become marauding, vicious bandits raiding the local churches until one day receiving a vision leading them to repent. After repairing each church they attacked, the brothers set out on an ocean voyage, traveling from place to place and seeking enlightenment and knowledge.

The work opens with a violent unison A, followed by a dark, tentative Irish reel in the low strings which is then taken up by the winds. The intensity subsides as the reel is transformed into a calmer version, portraying the transformation of the brothers upon their vision of repentance. The work closes with a jig/shanty as the brothers set out on their voyage, with a final brief statement of the opening reel concluding the piece.
