Alan Fernie has dedicated this piece to the Irvine and Dreghorn Junior Brass Band.
Alan writes, The band rehearse in a room above the local football club's changing room. At the time he was writing the work, a well known footbal comentator ( Arthur Montfort ) died. One of Arthur Montford's favourite phrases when describing the action at a football match was to say "there was a Stramash".
The word Stramash is used to describe a noisy commotion or an uproar. ... The origins of the word are not exactly known, although there is some suggestion that it may have derived from the old French word 'escarmoche' meaning a skirmish.
Inchkeith (from the Scottish Gaelic: Innis Cheith) is an island in the Firth of Forth, in the Kingdon of Fife, Scotland
Inchkeith has had a colourful history as a result of its proximity to Edinburgh and strategic location for use as home for Inchkeith Lighthouse and for military purposes defending the Firth of Forth from attack from shipping, and more recently protecting the upstream Forth Bridge and Rosyth Dockyard. Inchkeith has, by some accounts, been inhabited (intermittently) for almost 1,800 years.
