Thank you Maureen for sharing with us. :))

[Horsemarine100]

I'm sure O'Carolan would have approved of this authentic Celtic harp version, beautifully played.

[maureenderry]

Mesmerising and spellbinding. Would love to have you post more harp-based music.

[MyUndergroundfloor]

Thanks for uploading such a beautiful music. Does he has CD? I loved the 'An evening prayer' that you sung in your other video, very touching. Thank you so much!

[DaveLister43]

Thank you for your lovely comment. Declan does not have a commercial CD yet......I am continually telling him to record one very soon.

[maureenderry]

Sorry about that last comment.....Dave Lister is not me!! Just a bit of confusion on the library computer. Anyway, Thanks for your comment.

Balbriggan lighthouse without the dome is like having a house that isn't a home, like the old town clock with only one hand or our beach without any sand, To us that have reached that certain age when they stole the dome it sent us in rage, what were the old farthers about? They let the dome go without even a shout! Lets start an appeal to have it restored, if we all stand together we carn't ignored. Starting today rebuild the dome without any delay.

[mactcampbell]

Very good indeed. I play a lot of O'Carolan's tunes but just the basic versions. Declan's arrangements make them that much more interesting.

[maureenderry]

Thanks for commenting.

[crunluath2008]

[Daisy4dk]

I have a soft spot for strings. This is truly great music beatifully played by Declan. Thank you for sharing. All five stars!!

[maureenderry]

Thank you. I will pass on your compliments to Declan.

[jch35vt39h206]

Such beautiful music and lovely video.

[maureenderry]

Thank you. Declan is my son - based in Glasgow where he plays and teaches harp and also sings and plays guitar in several establishments. There are some more videos in my channel of Declan. I visited your channel and see you like Israel Kamakawiso...I only discovered him a few weeks ago...isn't his voice magic?

[jch35vt39h206]

Oh yes, Brudda IZ was a gift from God, all be it a short time! However, his music and message of peace and love continues to spread around the world. I've been a fan of yours and your son for several months now. Thank you both for all the beautiful post.

[ldreamr]

That is wonderful.

How can I learn to play that in this form? Is there sheet music or was it all improvised?

[maureenderry]

Thanks for your comment. Declan improvises most of his harp music.

[flyingscribe]

I think the word I am searching for is "Exquisite": adj.: extremely beautiful, delicate.

[maureenderry]

I shall pass your lovely comment onto my son. Thank you.

[Philoaussie08]

I must say, great music,...fantastic..thanks for sharing.....

[maureenderry]

Thank you...I think he is great.- but then he is my son!!

[kyoki6666]

thank you for this version& Declan`s playing.

I think I met him about 5 years ago atGirvan in the company of aflute player called Martin.

I was the shy older harper from the north of england,

Keep inspiring.

Christine.

[maureenderry]

I shall pass this on to him. The flute player was probably Martin Shane.

[maureenderry]

Thank you. Declan is my youngest son and a fine musician
