Thread Name: Irish Songs for female singers
Subject: RE: Irish Songs for female singers
"O Light of the Morning" (A Sholais na Maidine) is a Christian song with the first verse in Irish (Gaelic) and 5 verses in English, for two female voices, an alto and a low soprano. It can be found at www.valkyriepub.com. Valkyrie Publications also has two more Irish traditional songs now, "Be Thou My Vision" and "The Gartan Mother's Lullaby." Beautiful, quite easy harp arrangements of both, which could also be played on the piano, and chords for guitar. (See my earlier post about Irish traditional and W.B. Yeats songs on this website.)
