What is Peadair singing?

Post by jorden »

I really like these songs by Peadair O Ceannabhain (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OMch-1c-HCE). I have two questions: do I understand correctly that he put these songs on dance tunes? And does anyone here know the titles of the songs and/or the tunes?

Thanks,
Jorden

The songs are An Rogaire Dubh, , Na Cheannabhain Bhana and Paidín O Raifeartaigh.

The songs are set to dance tunes but he links three in a set as would be common with dance tunes but not, at that time, with songs.
My brain hurts

Hello

Did Mick O'Brien also play these three in a set? With an tUsual O'Raifeartaigh being the Willie Clancy version?

Cheers
