Product Description

In Ireland's quest for independence, the "Easter Rising" of 1916 was a pivotal event that helped shape history and fan the flames of Irish freedom. Here is a sparkling medley of tunes from Ireland's rebellious past. The familiar "Minstrel Boy" leads to a lively setting of "Wind That Shakes the Barley". The haunting, yet dramatic "Foggy Dew" then leads to the stirring march strains of "The Boys of Wexford" which features tin whistles (opt. flutes or piccolo) along with a driving rhythmic pulse. Dur: 5:20
