14 Oct 12 - 09:17 PM (#3419942) Subject: Tune Add: Íosa Bháin: Did Seán Ó Riada write music From: GUEST,FaolRua Hey all...I have a question about a religious song in Irish called "A Íosa Bháin." I've been told that Seán Ó Riada may have written the music for the song (the lyrics are traditional). I know someone who wants to record the song, so we really need to get this figured out. Does anyone out there know if Ó Riada wrote or arranged the music for this song? |

I don't recognise the title, offhand, but will have a look through my own resources. Regards |

We recorded it in the 1970's and it is available along with the more common 1st Mass that he composed. The cd also contains the pdf files of the music for download via computer. It is available from Gael Linn under the title Ceol an Aifrinn. If having trouble with it, you can get back me directly via my bit of a website at http://www.peadaroriada.ie/ p |
