Credits to Mr. Thomas Walsh for composing this beautiful tune!
Video and recording by Hermann Overholdt
This is my amazing Traditional Irish Music class performing a concert in Sweden, December 2013. The concert was held in our classroom on Visingsö where we studied and played Irish Traditional Music together. Many thanks to our teacher Jennikel Andersson who made this possible.

I stumpbled across this a year ago, about 3 months ago I bought a flute, at the tender age of 43 years I started playing it. Played a little everyday and today I brought out the sheet music for this and tried playing it. It felt so awsome and I would never have started my journey if it wasn't for this video so. Tack så jättemycket för inspirationen! Mvh Anders

James Carroll, the Irish traditional musicians/bands you mentioned are of a past generation, and rarely play the tour circuit. Christy Moore, Donal Lunney and Andy Irvine formerly of Planxty rarely play/sing these days. Half the original Dubliners have passed on. Of the bands mentioned I think the lovely under appreciated Moya Brennan formerly of Clannad has had a music revival, therefore still performs. Indeed for that matter the trad groups/singers that succeeded the bands you mentioned are probably close to retiring. The very good news is that there has been and continues to be an enormous revival in Irish music and Irish writing since the 2008 Celtic Tiger recession.

@jamescarroll9022 3 жыл бұрын

@@jamesdolan4042 Indeed many of the greats I mentioned are dead, but nonetheless the fact they aren't around to tour doesn't make them irrelevant. What they have left behind is a true credit to them all and to Irish folk/Trad. Daoirí Farrell is one of the best modern day ballad singers, akin to Luke Kelly in having a phenomenal and powerful voice for a song, just to name one

This is surely one of the best tunes ever written as it can be played equally as well as a Waltz or an Air with a 3/4 6/8 or 2/4 lilt. Very well written Mr.Walsh. Please note this tune is not Traditional and the writer should be credited.(Thomas Walsh) That said I do believe Thomas Walsh released it into the Public Domain but still deserves credit. Nice performance which is expected from Irish Folk musicians who seem to be born playing.
