I've just loved Niall Hanna's version..But I really love your ' take' ...I learned this beautiful tune in 1958 ( in rural Offaly ) thanks to our music ( Sister ) teacher ..it was the ( much maligned , nowadays ) Nuns ( Order of St.John of God ), who , in our East Offaly area, kept culture alive, in this multi-religious area ; and principally, Piano ,Violin, and Ballet.. Glad to say that I ( 70 ) still can play ' The Mountains of Pomeroy ' on my combined ..Zither/Violin. ( and on the old very worn, battered, 1958 Flagolet )
Was glad te see near the end there that the lassie harmonizing could actually play the bodhran an play it well at that ,I’d thought for awhile there it was just a prop.
O aye Stan the hair on the back yer neck areckin .. have heard many versions of this including the one I rate the best played at about four in the mornin at the Fleadh in Listowel in the early eighties. But this one battles hard for second place ...
great rendition .... a favorite for me
What a beautiful version of this great song .
Great , Is that a Tír Eoghain accent I hear ? Very well done, you can be proud of that !
