Sliabh Geal gCua (Slow Air) by Bev Whelan published on 2022-03-06T18:04:39Z An instrumental Irish slow air, a song of exile, written by Pádraig Ó Miléadha in the early 20th Century. The title means 'The bright mountain of Cua'. This tune contains all the longing for home that the composer felt, while working far away from Co. Waterford in the Welsh coal mines. I learned this tune from the playing of Matt Cranitch, and I am playing it on my John Sindt D whistle.

This feels like a lament to me, particularly appropriate for our times. 2022-03-06T19:06:21Z
