Gradam Ceoil TG4 - Jackie Daly, name that tune...

Post by Tyghress »

Back in 2005 Jackie Daly was honored at an award show, and in it he played an air. Now I can't find the video of the show, nor the air, and I was hoping someone here would be able to point me in the right direction.

Many thanks,
Tygh

He usually plays Her mantle so green or what he calls 'the trip to Blarney' (which isn't exactly the correct name) so I guess it would be one of those.

ITMA has done a project identifying all tunes from the awards shows. You'll probably find it there.

Holy cow that was fast! Thank you.

If this isn't 'the' tune I heard so many years ago, its close enough in emotion and delivery.

Beyond that (I'm surprised to say) I have this CD, and have probably heard it multiple times since seeing the award program.
Seeing a performance is a different experience from just hearing it.

Again, thank you!

You're welcome. The award thingie is still online: Gradam 2005.

[add] I had a look and it wasn't Her Mantle so Green so it is indeed, as I expected Ag Taisteal Na Blárnan (Travelling Through Blarney) It's on around 1.05, if you want to look it up.
