Thread Name: Maire Ni Scolai (1909 - 1985) traditional singer
Subject: RE: Maire Ni Scolai (1909 - 1985) traditional singer
Just started a fresh thread for "Seoithín Seothó," the Suantraídhe from Connemara, with Gaelic lyrics (written in the early 1900's, to be sung rather than lilted or hummed) and English translation. Máire Ní Scolaí does, indeed, sing the cradle-song exactly as presented in Mrs. Costello's "Amhráin Mhuighe Seóla."
