Subject: RE: Irish Songs for female singers
Dear ladies: You have so many good selections and suggestions already! Allow me to offer a few that in my humble opinion will do nicely. The Bonny Light Horseman (Delores Keane & John Faulkner) Johnny has Gone for a Soldier (Various) Cragie Hills (Keane & Faulkner again) Willie McBride (June Tabor) Susannah Martin (Triona Ni Donmhail with Relativity) The Highwayman (Loreena McKennitt) O.K., Susannah MArtin is written about the salem Witchcraft trials and technically isn't an Irish song. Still, it's a great song well suites for a woman's voice or as a duet and it tells a graet story. Best of luck and knock 'em dead, Neil
