This is a Breton song, a tune that never got anything done with it. A Corncrow outtake,.
 Until yesterday it existed as a guide guitar track that I recorded, and some bouzouki played by my erstwhile bandmate.
I stuck some recorder and drums on it.  

Enjoy - with or without cider!

Saoil, a bheil stòras de bhàrdachd is beul-athris Ghàidhealach ann an clò nas luach-mhòr na 'n cruinneachadh 'Ortha nan Gàidheal' le Alasdair MacGilleMhìcheil?  Abair stòras airson Gàidheil is goill le chèile.  
In 1115 Earl Magnus (Manus) of Orkney was killed by his jealous half brother Earl Hakon.  St Manus has had devotional followers to this very day.  This poem is from the wonderful collection of folklore, Carmina Gadelica, by Alexander Carmichael.  

A Mhanuis mo rùin 
Is tu dhèanadh mo rùin 
A chuirp chùbhraidh nan dùl, 
Cuimhnich oirnn. 

Cuimhnich a naoimh nam buadh, 
A chomraig 's a chòmhn an sluagh, 
Cobhair oirnne nar truaigh, 
'S na trèig sinn. 

Tog ar seilbh mach ri leirg, 
Casg coin ghioirr is coin dheirg, 
Cum uainn fuath, fath, feirg, 
Agus fòirne. 

Cuartaich tàn agus buar, 
Cuartaich caor agus uan; 
Cùm uap an fhamh-bhual, 
'S an luch-fhèoir. 

Crath an drùchd on speur air crodh, 
Thoir fàs air feur, dèis, agus snodh, 
Dùbhrach, lus-fèidh, cèis, meacan-dògh, 
Agus neòinean. 

O Mhanuis nan glonn, 
Air bharca nan sonn, 
Air bharra nan tonn, 
Air sala na fonn, 
Còmhn agus glèidh sinn. 

O Magnus of my love, 
Thou it is who would'st guide, 
Thou fragrant body of grace, 
Remember us. 

Remember us, thou Saint of power, 
Who didst encompass and protect the people, 
Succour thou us in our distress, 
Nor forsake us. 

Lift our flocks to the hills, 
Quell the wolf and the fox, 
Ward from us spectre, giant, fury, 
An oppression. 

Surround cows and herds, 
Surround sheep and lambs; 
Keep from them the water-vole, 
And the field-vole. 

Sprinkle dew from the sky upon kine, 
Give growth to grass, and corn, and sap to plants, 
Water-cress, deer’s-grass, fern, burdock, 
And daisy. 

O Magnus of fame, 
On the barque of the heroes, 
On the crests of the waves, 
On the sea, on the land, 
Aid and preserve us.

8. Planxty Charles Bunworth And Rose and Kathleen’s Slip Jig
© Liz Carroll / Grow Your Own Music (BMI)

Liz Carroll (fiddle), Catriona McKay (harp), Kieran O’Hare (flute, tinwhistles, uilleann pipes), Tríona Ní Dhomhnaill (keyboard), Liz Knowles
(fiddle, hardanger d’amore 5+5), Trevor Hutchinson (acoustic bass)

From Liz's words in the CD Booklet, "Charles Bunworth (1704–1772), from County Cork, was a great proponent of Irish music, especially harp music, and was also a harpist himself. The instrument by John Kelly featured in the exhibition was made for Reverend Bunworth.

A planxty is a tune that honors or thanks someone. In respect to the word’s origin, Donal O’Sullivan writes the following in Carolan: The Life Times and Music of an Irish Harper: 'The tunes called Planxties . . . owe their origin, if not, as I believe, their names, to Carolan; and are to be regarded as a class of festive harp-tunes composed in honour of his patrons or hospitable entertainers, and, as such, only differing from his other airs composed for the same purpose in the greater gaiety and playfulness of their movements.'

The slip jig is a uniquely Irish dance to a tune in 9/8 time. "Rose and Kathleen’s Slip Jig" honors two of my fellow musicians, Rose Conway Flanagan (fiddle)and Kathleen Conneely (tinwhistle), wonderful players and teachers. The melody of the tune contains my own bow to Chicago in a blues progression to end the twelve-bar first part."

"IRELAND: Crossroads of Art and Design, 1690–1840 - The Music" is an album of music produced and performed by some of Irish music's most renowned musicians. The music was inspired by a collection of fine and decorative art that was part of an exhibition at the Art Institute of Chicago between March and June of 2015.

Produced by Liz Carroll, Liz Knowles, and Marty Fahey, the album features music of the period, and also newly composed music by Liz Carroll which was inspired by the hundreds of years old music as well as the art from the exhibition itself.

All three of the producers play on the album. Fiddlers Liz Carroll and Liz Knowles are heard throughout, and are often leading an ensemble of exemplary musicians. The ensemble also take on solo pieces which honor the tradition of the traveling musicians of the period. These artists include keyboardist Tríona Ní Dhomhnaill, harpist Catriona McKay, uilleann piper Kieran O’Hare, pianist Marty Fahey, and Liz Knowles, too. Guest musicians include Jackie Moran, Trevor Hutchinson, Emer Mayock, Mick O'Brien, and Aoife Ní Bhriain.

The album, which had been for sale only via the Art Institute's web site and museum store, is now widely available via CD Baby, Claddagh Records, and OSSIAN USA, and at online stores everywhere.

I am a singer and multi-instrumentalist. My initial incarnation was as a           wyrd/psych-folk singer-musician, and saw my debut solo album, Wednesday’s Child, released in  2010. Subsequent (unreleased) solo albums include self-penned material alongside an eclectic mix of covers from various genres. 

I have gigged and/or recorded with Elowen, The Rowan Amber Mill (album releases include 'Midsummers', 'Heartwood' and 'Folk Devils and Moral Panics' ) Corncrow (album releases include 'Sweet Nightingale' and 'So Brightly Shining') The Atwood Machine, Mats Bergman's 'Burnt More Bridges Than Cross The River Thames' vinyl release, Dead Melodies 'Murken Hollow' and featured on various collaborations; releases including Dark Britannica's We Bring You A King With A Head Of Gold and Rif Mountain's Echoes From The Mountain, all widely available .

The lockdown gave me ample opportunity for music to be made at Wyrd House Studio. Back to my folky roots, and after a 10 year hiatus, The Rowan Amber Mill released a mini-album 'Among the Gorse To Settle Scores', ahead of the full-length 'Golden Strings To Tether The Sun'.
