The Vigil for St Patrick's Day Irish Music Set




I am a huge fan of traditional Irish music; one of the joys of my trip to Ireland a few years ago was sitting in on a couple of sessions in local pubs where local musicians (some of them famous, like members of the group Altan - I was swooning!) play together all evening.

This video is the group Lunasa playing a set that includes The Merry Sisters of Fate and The Chapel Bell/Paddy Ryan's Dream/Bucks of Oranmore.  I know it's Lent, but music is prayer, too.  Enjoy!
