Iarla Ó Lionáird - Caoineadh na dTrí Mhuire

[alexpjp]

Why ruin the old style with silly modern chords, which don't add ANYTHING to it!? It annoys me a lot.

[241hnd]

This music is beautiful. There are other videos here with the same group, (Mo Ghile Mear, etc.) that I also like. Is there a video of the entire program, or is there a DVD available? If there isn't there should be.

Is e an t-amhran iontach. Nil an cheoil thraidisiunta, ach te se go halainn.

Mourning songs are an old tradition in Europe. This reminds me of the Tazhat songs from Macedonia, sung by women at funerals.

[bookkeeper57]

This man O'Lionaird is one of Ireland's most traditional folk singers.

[TheSandsie13]

[Shanniquitie]

[qcubed692141128]

I am not Irish but I love this style of music>!!

[bookkeeper57]

This is a sean nos, or traditional treatment of this song. This kind of singing has not exactly disappeared,

but it's increasingly rare. Part of Ireland's

folk tradition.

[DadsBlueAngel]

My grandfather a Matheson used to play the organ in exactly this way--for hours. But he wasn't a singer.

[lizzyvolpe]

A very sad song but very beautiful.

Could you imagine the grief Mother Mary suffered while seeing her Son tortured and crucified beyond recognition.
