Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Draught From: Jim Carroll Date: 08 Jul 09 - 09:02 AM "Turlough is pronounced "Ter-luk" Never heard it pronounced that way around here (W of Ireland) but I'm sure Martin Ryan can put us right when he goes home from the Willie Clancy School. It's always fascinated me that a turlough is a lake that dries up in summertime. Jim Carroll |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Draught From: GUEST,Black belt caterpillar wrestler Date: 08 Jul 09 - 08:28 AM There is a slight controversy over whether there is a repeated flattened accidental in the B part. Some play it with and some without. I like it with. |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Draught From: Mr Happy Date: 08 Jul 09 - 08:21 AM ............so following that logic, 'The Boys of the Lough' are really 'The Boys of the Luck' ?? |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Draught From: bubblyrat Date: 08 Jul 09 - 07:03 AM I beg to differ,as one of the Irish-speaking (mustn't say Erse !) contributors to this discussion has already stated that Turlough is pronounced "Ter-luk",not "Ter -low"-----Cue "Dam Busters" music and da-da-da-da-da noises !! |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Draught From: Mr Happy Date: 08 Jul 09 - 06:52 AM I appreciate the existence of earlier discussions on the controversy of how Carolan's name be pronounced. Seems to me, the name is Carolan, but since his first name was Turlough - pronounced 'Turlow' - both run together could produce the confusion of 'Turlow [O'] Carolan'. IMO |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Draught From: bubblyrat Date: 07 Jul 09 - 06:31 PM Aha !! If you read the other " Carolan" thread above,you will see that it can be "Turlough O'Carolan's Draught", or " Carolan's Draught",as,without his first name,you drop the "O' ". Well, according to various learned Mudcatters,you do !! Tricky,but rather interesting !! |
Subject: Carolan's Draught From: Mr Happy Date: 07 Jul 09 - 10:33 AM We played it along with a bazouki-ist at a sesh in the Commercial, Clecky last weakend. Nice rendition here http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UcDgNKZDrB0 |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Drawed From: artbrooks Date: 24 Jul 02 - 06:53 PM There are a lot of O'Carolan things, including several midis for "O'Carolan's Draught",here. |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Drawed From: MudGuard Date: 24 Jul 02 - 05:23 PM Good thinking, Philippa, this will make it easier to find the thread. Sorry for my misspelling... MudGuard |
Subject: Tune Req: O'Carolan's Draught From: GUEST,Philippa Date: 24 Jul 02 - 05:17 PM I just thought I'd add a subject heading with standard spelling. |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Drawed From: MudGuard Date: 24 Jul 02 - 05:07 PM Thanks Bill for going to all the trouble... I found the tune following the link Sorcha gave. And Mandolin tabs are no use to me, I only torture my neighbours by playing the tin whistle... But maybe some mandolin player can use it... MudGuard |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Drawed From: GUEST,Bill Kennedy Date: 24 Jul 02 - 04:17 PM well, four beats to a measure, the chord is on the first beat, except when carried over for another measure, as stroke (/) marks indicate |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Drawed From: GUEST,Bill Kennedy Date: 24 Jul 02 - 04:12 PM well that's a little better, but the chords should be in their correct places, don't know how to fix it, but check out the web site |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Drawed From: GUEST,Bill Kennedy Date: 24 Jul 02 - 04:11 PM sorry, what a mess, better if you go to the site and copy it yourself, don't know how the line breaks would work with this but I'll try again.

Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Drawed From: MudGuard Date: 24 Jul 02 - 02:49 PM Thanks a lot. A Mudcat-typical fast and good response to a request! I might have found it myself - but my spelling was too far off... MudGuard |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Drawed From: GUEST,Bill Kennedy Date: 24 Jul 02 - 02:38 PM oops, Sorcha got there first! |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Drawed From: GUEST,Bill Kennedy Date: 24 Jul 02 - 02:36 PM 'Turlough O'Carolan's Draught', better known as 'O'Carolan's Draught', should be easy to find, I'm sure it;s on the web somewhere in a midi file, or soemthing you can listen to |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Drawed From: Sorcha Date: 24 Jul 02 - 02:33 PM (oops--Carolan's Draught)And it is a pretty tune. |
Subject: RE: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Drawed From: Sorcha Date: 24 Jul 02 - 02:32 PM Maybe First word is Turlough--Irish bard. |
Subject: Tune Req: Turlow Carolan's Drawed From: MudGuard Date: 24 Jul 02 - 02:20 PM Today I heard a tune which was announced as something like "Turlow Carolan's Drawed" The PA system was not too good and it might be something spelled quite differently - not being a native English speaker didn't help at all ;-) I liked the tune very much. Does anyone know it - or even better have it as ABC? TIA MudGuard |
