Virginia

Regarding the Irish language song of this name to which you refer.It is, as you say, about an incident in the run-up to the 1798 rebellion in Ireland. One of the many CD's produced for the bicentenary has a version sung by a fine singer called Aine Ni Cheallaigh, who now lives in the area. Her very full, unaccompanied version lasts nine and a half minutes!
