Very well deserved for keeping the traditions going.and in this day and age of plastic consumerism long may it continue. I hope that someone will be going up to meet I love my TG4 it keeps me in touch with the holy ground. .

I come from an Irish family, my only regret is that i did not learn gaelige or the sean nos tradition at an early age- Dara is one of my heroes, his voice is so pure and beautiful- I hope the Mac Donnchadha clan continue this beautiful tradition for many generations to come

íontach. D'fhoghlaim mé an t-amhrán seo nuair bhí mé 'sa gCeathrú Rua.

Dara has a fine voice! wish I could learn gaelige & sean nos music from him :) I hope there will be a new generation of singers who carries on this tradition for many years to come!

The song is Si Do Mhameo (The Wealthy Widow): nice job by this man who must be all of 80, or more.

[AyeYirMa]

@bookkeeper57 It's known as either 'Sí do Mhameo í' or 'Cailleach an Airgid'. Same song.

The ancient Celts were a bardic people, and they've passed that on to present day Irish and Scottish people.
