Special

Romantic Irish art songs, long hidden away in archives, in a new edition edited by Jane Harty, the grand-niece of Sir Hamilton Harty. These are gems set to Irish poets, many of them women, and Harty’s settings capture the delight in fairies, fiddlers and fishermen, the beauty of the Irish countryside and village life, the deep love and rueful humor of Irish women, and the depth of struggle and loss of Irish men. Designed for singers and pianists, the collection also includes the texts separately for those who love poetry. Contains “Five Irish Sketches” (1911), “Sea Wrack) (1901), “Lane o’ the Thrushes” (1906), “By the Bivouac’s Fitful Flame” (1912), and more; both High and Low keys.
