The second recording from this trio of music collected by James Goodman (1828-96) in the southwest of Ireland in the mid-nineteenth century. The manuscripts, held at Trinity College Dublin and now published in two volumes by the Irish Traditional Music Archive are of great significance because they preserve much of the traditional music of the south of Ireland as it was sung and played in the years before traditional culture there was devastated by the Great Famine of the 1840s. This recording draws primarily from the second published volume while occasionally revisiting the previously explored initial volume.
