Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irish Songs: A Collection of Airs Old and New While the airs that have become most popular possess some peculiar attraction in rhythm, melody, or sentiment that has made them linger in the heart, there are other airs less direct, perhaps, in their appeal but more subtle in their charm. In the nature of things such airs are less widely known. Quite a sheaf of them are to be found in this volume. They possess uncommon beauty in music and text, together with the true Celtic flavor, and must appeal to lovers of the artistic in Folk Song everywhere.

Download or read book Popular Songs Ireland of Ireland written by T. Crofton Croker and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-10 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Popular Songs Ireland of Ireland: Collected and Edited, With Introductions and Notes So many collections of what are called Irish popular songs are before the public, under various fanciful names, such as ff The Shamrock," "The Harp of Erin," "The Hibernian Minstrel," &c., that some apology appears necessary for adding another to the number. And here it may be proper to reply to a question which has been asked, In what particulars Irish and English song differ? Ritson states, that "The distinction between Scottish and English songs, it is conceived, arises, not from the language in which they are written, for that may be common to both; but, from the country to which they respectively belong, and of which their authors are natives.

Download or read book Old Irish Folk Music and Songs written by P. W. Joyce and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-11-22 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Old Irish Folk Music and Songs: A Collection of 842 Irish Airs and Songs, Hitherto Unpublished If the names have survived in the two branches, why not the airs? And I thought it just possible - indeed I half hoped - that in Danish collections of popular music I might light on versions of our Molly Astore, Garryowen, The Boyne Water, Patrick's Day, The Groves of Blarney, &c. In order' to hunt this matter up, I procured from a well-known publisher in Copenhagen three fine collections of Scandinavian popular traditional music, mostly with words - Danish, Swedish, and Norwegian containing 294 Danish melodies (including twelve of the Faroe Islands), 223 Swedish, and 161 Norwegian. All are accompanied with elaborate notes; but it was tantalizing that I could not read one word of them; for they are all - as well as the songs - in Danish. The music I could read, however and I went over the three collections, air by air. In general character and structure the Danish airs approach nearer to Irish than do the Swedish and Norwegian; but I may say at once that on the whole the result of my search was disappointing. I could find no considerable number of Danish airs either identical with, or closely resembling, those of Ireland. Yet I found a few.

Download or read book Irish Melodies Classic Reprint written by Thomas Moore and published by . This book was released on 2015-07-26 with total page 318 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Irish Melodies The recollections connected, in my mind, with that early period of my life, when I first thought of interpreting in verse the touching language of my country's music, tempt me again to advert to those long past days; and even at the risk of being thought to indulge overmuch in what Colley Gibber calls "the great pleasure of writing about one's self all day," to notice briefly some of those impressions and influences under which the attempt to adapt words to our ancient Melodies was for some time meditated by me, and, at last, undertaken. There can be no doubt that to the zeal and industry of Mr. Bunting his country is indebted for the preservation of her old national airs. During the prevalence of the Penal Code, the music of Ireland was made to share in the fate of its people.
