Ciarán Ó Maonaigh's weekly programme on Raidió na Gaeltachta, Ceol a' Ghleanna (music of the glen) tonight also featured Séamus Ó Beaglaíoch. I expect more extended tributes will be heard on the folk and traditional music programmes on BBC Radio Ulster and RTÉ Radio 1 this weekend. For the edification and interest of those who are less familiar with the music of the Ó Beaglaíoch family, when we send condolences to Seamus' people, these include sister Seosaimhín singing (accompanied by nephew Cormac) singing Cailín na n-urla donn, macaronic song Máire playing piano accordian along with Séamus in 1987 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiyATor-Ab4 brother Breandán playing the melodeon speaking about music and the sea https://www.farmersjournal.ie/brothers-in-arms-611097 discussion re land and language nephew Cormac https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PQLMUHQtKKg Cormac along with Séamus' son Eoin (studio guests of Liam Ó Maoinlaigh) Séamus' daughter Maebh playing melodeon singing I think all of Séamus and Breandán's progeny play music. I also found videos of Máire Úna Ní Bheaglaoich busking; I think she is a cousin.
