Book excerpt: Musical Culture and the Spirit of Irish Nationalism is the first comprehensive history of music’s relationship with Irish nationalist politics. Addressing rebel songs, traditional music and dance, national anthems and protest song, the book draws upon an unprecedented volume of material to explore music’s role in cultural and political nationalism in modern Ireland. From the nineteenth-century Young Irelanders, the Fenians, the Home Rule movement, Sinn Féin and the Anglo-Irish War to establishment politics in independent Ireland and civil rights protests in Northern Ireland, this wide-ranging survey considers music’s importance and its limitations across a variety of political movements.

MUSIC DURING THE MIDDLE AGES--CONTINUED. Having now brought down our inquiries to what in the European annals are termed the middle ages, we find that the people of Ireland were far from enjoying the sweets of peace, "the nurse of science," as the sword of the stranger was seldom permitted to rest in the scabbard; and "as the Irish chieftains had to defend their lands from the inroads of those Anglo-Norman invaders who sought to extend their possession of the fair valleys of Erin." Yet under these very uncongenial circumstances, our music and poetry still flourished. We find that although deprived of considerable portions of their lands, harassed by continual warfare, and subdued in spirit, the undying spirit of music still reigned in the bosoms of the people, by whom it was cherished; and so firmly was it implanted in their nature that even the rude hand of strife could not eradicate it, although it might, from their desponding condition, have damped, to some extent, their more fervid aspirations to the tuneful muse. Mr. Walker says, that "on the revival of literature in the eleventh century, after the conversion of our Norman enemies, the Irish attempted, ineffectually, to restore things to their former state." The Filean Colleges were re-established, but with less liberal endowments, and with less strict discipline; however, they continued to be supported until the reign of Charles the Second. The bardic order was now (eleventh century) divided into two classes--namely, the ollamh re-seanachs, and the ollamh re-dan.- The former were historians and antiquaries--the office was held by certain families by hereditary right. Of this very numerous class I may name the family of the O'Maolconry, hereditary bards, and...
Download or read book Dear Harp of My Country written by James W. Flannery and published by J. S. Sanders. This book was released on 1997 with total page 190 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Best friend to Lord Byron; famous throughout Europe and America as a poet, composer, singer, wit, and polemicist; Thomas Moore (1779-1852) was the embodiment of Romanticism. It is said he was often moved to tears by his own songs, and so were his audiences. Servants lined up behind closed doors to hear him; women swooned, wrote him notes in verse, and treasured locks of his hair. The first in a long line of Irish poet-performers who combined personal expression with a zeal for political and social reform, Moore formed a vital link between the old Gaelic bardic tradition -- nearly extinct in his day -- and the popular songs in English that fueled the flames of nationalism in early nineteenth century Ireland.Including Moore's lyrics to accompany the songs recorded here, James Flannery's book is part biography, part music history, and part history of a nation. It presents the story of Thomas Moore in the context of the Irish nationalist movement and explains the lasting influence the songs of Moore have had on the lives of countless millions of Irish emigrants, who found in them a symbolic link with their homeland.
