Ommadawn is the third record album by Mike Oldfield, originally released in 1975 on Virgin Records. As with Hergest Ridge and Tubular Bells, Ommadawn is another two-movement work. Oldfield makes economic use of a relatively small number of subjects throughout Ommadawn and develops them extensively, both with musical variation and varying the instruments used. Each of the two movements of Ommadawn utilise their own subjects without sharing them between the two movements. Oldfield sought out the ancient Celtic influence on English music and composed for traditional instruments such as uilleann pipes on the original LP version.
