A song collected by Edward Bunting. thanks to him we have a lot of information, repertoire,playing techniques such a selective damping, tuning etc for the early Irish and Scotish Clarsach.he also organized the Belfast harp festival in 1972, where many of the last early irish harpers came to play.Edward Bunting collected many songs of this harpers....without his contribution, possibly much of the early Irish harp music, style, finger nail technique, ornamentation etc would be ignored nowdays!here i play the song plus two variations on clarsach made by William MacDolald from Scotland.i hope you enjoy it!

Although nowdays people beleives that this song also called 0'Carolan's Dream was composed by Carolan,it was really Composed by the Irish early HarperWilliam Connellan (1645-1700)its beleive that Carolan took the medoly of this song and made his O'Carolan Dream wich is very similar.The clarsach used on this song is the model Gealach based on early harp carvings of Scotland also based on surviving medieval clarsach.made by the Scottish harp maker William Mac Donald.http://www.macdonaldharpsskye.net/ Molly Mac Alpine

I suoni dell'arpa irlandese o clarsach sono noti in Irlanda da più di 500 anni. Il suono vivace caratteristico della clarsach è prodotto pizzicando le corde con le unghie invece che con la punta delle dita, come per la maggior parte delle altre arpe. Lo strumento è così legato alla tradizione irlandese da essere il simbolo del Paese. Irlanda on the...

The beautiful country of Scotland. The country is most well-known for the bagpipes, but can also be associated with the fiddle, accordion, and clàrsach (harp). It is made up of over 790 little islands and takes up 1/3rd of Great Britain.I made this when I was bored. I spent awhile trying to find the bagpipe song I've heard my entire life (thank you, great-grandma, and other grandparents, for that) that I learned last night is called Scotland the Brave.Couldn't find a decent enough recording on YouTube so I found another.I do not know the name of this song, or if it has one at all...I'm also rather Scottish (my great-grandma immigrated to Canada from Glasgow in 1917 - I'm very French because of the man she married).I figured I may as well get to know the country so I looked up various pictures and put it to music (supposed to be more traditional musicEnjoy.
