Subject: Traditional Irish Songs-Choral Music From: Aran Date: 11 Sep 06 - 10:27 PM I'm looking for choral (SATB) arrangements of traditional Irish songs about places in Ireland and/or with place names in the title. Any recommendations for sources or contacts? |

Subject: RE: Traditional Irish Songs-Choral Music From: Dave Hanson Date: 12 Sep 06 - 02:51 AM Maybe ard mhacha, but it's not traditional in traditional Irish folksong, like the English tradition is unaccompanied singing, but nowadays its mostly done to a guitar. eric |

Subject: RE: Traditional Irish Songs-Choral Music From: MartinRyan Date: 12 Sep 06 - 04:20 AM It may not be "traditional" - but it's been around and popular for about a hundred years, anyway! Good music shops in Ireland will have plenty for shcool and other choirs. Not sure of online sources. Regards |
