SHE MOVED THROUGH THE FAIR – for Acoustic Fingerstyle Guitar

admin — Wed, 03 Mar 2010 14:51:20 +0000

“She moved through the fair” is one of the most beautiful traditional irish song: its original author is unknown, but the modern lyrics were written mostly by Padraic Colum. Most modern arrangements of the song can be traced to the recording by Fairport Convention in 1968, who adopted the style of the song from the travelling singer Margaret Barry. Also of note is the recording of the song by Alan Stivell in 1973.
Here I try to play it only for fingerstyle acoustic guitar. This adaptation is mine and I play it with my McIlroy guitar, tuning in DADGBD.

This is my arrangement of “Danny Boy”, with a modern twist, which will be featured in a future CD of traditional songs, anthems and ballads.Danny Boy, is widely considered an Irish anthem, although written by Englishman Frederick Weatherly, based on the Londonderry Air in 1910. Nonetheless, “Danny Boy” is considered by many Irish and Canadian Americans to be their unofficial signature song. Transcriptions and music is available for this arrangement.By the way, this guitar is a custom made Flyde acoustic from the UK.

Here Come The Irish (song about Notre Dame)

admin — Mon, 22 Feb 2010 13:41:10 +0000

“Here Come The Irish” with John Scully ‘80.

Is it the campus, with its Golden Dome and Basilica rising above the quads? Or is it the powerful campus liturgies and sacred quiet of the Grotto?

Is it the intense commitment of faculty who ignite our students’ learning? Or the thriving community in the dorms, where bonds are developed that link alumni for life? Is it the storied traditions of Fighting Irish athletics?

Or is it something more? Something that can only be described as the spirit of Notre Dame — a distinctive combination of faith, academics, service, athletics, and community.

Ashokan Farewell (Jay Ungar) old time fiddle style

admin — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 10:16:39 +0000

This song is by Jay Unger and is one of the most beautiful waltzes ever written I think.

It’s not a hard song to play, it’s just that every time I’m in front of a recording device I louse up!!! lol…just natural I guess.

“Danny Boy” – Irish Song – Acoustic Cover

admin — Tue, 16 Feb 2010 10:16:24 +0000

Another one of my favorite songs. In the spirit of St. Patrick’s Day, here it is…Danny Boy.

From wiki:

…and many listeners among Irish-Americans, where the song enjoys its greatest popularity, regard it as the tender goodbye of a dying parent to a son who is going off to military service…
