Here's another one of those celtic waltzes, this time written in 1903 by James Scott Skinner to celebrate the life of Hector MacDonald. If you read his story you'll see the hero's life is a rather sad one that ends in suicide. I borrowed some of the ideas for this arrangement from a version I found on iTunes by a band called "Jameson's Revenge", but I added the ending myself after reading the Wikipedia article on Hector.
