Manx Fairy Tales by sophia Morrison:
Miss Sophia Morrison devoted much of her life to preserving all things Manx and was a leading member of the Manx Language Society. At the turn of the century she was a familiar figure in the farmhouses and cottages greeting people in the old tongue to which they readily responded. She understood them because she was one of them, and proud of being so.

Boellmann  - Introduction Choral Suite gothique, Op. 25

Played through the Leeds Town Hall Organ Sample Library


Leeds Town Hall Organ: Samplephonics - Sonas. Wee Boellman demo. Having fun with this great library!

I've always wanted to be able to sing this song and I only just worked up the courage to try and record it. It was a great way to test and push my voice to its absolute limit.
I am not a opera singer nor trained in anyway but I hope you enjoy.

Mannin veg Veen [Brian Stowell]

A song about the man regarded by many as the Manx national hero, Illiam Dhone:

"Who would put his trust in honour or in power,
In youth or in beauty, or in great kindred ?
For envy, rage and malice will destroy any man;
And thy death, Illiam Dhone, 'tis that breaks our heart."

This song is performed by the Manx Gaelic choir, Caarjyn Cooidjagh, on their CD, 'Cronnane'.
