It's a 3 stringer in DG and in a style that dates to the 18th cent. The songs are Un Canadien Errant, the wandering Canadian, which was written in 1842 as a lament for rebels exiled from Canada after the failed Lower Canada Rebellion, 1837-8. The 2nd is A La Claire Fontaine, by the clear Spring, which dates back to 1604 and was originally a song of lost love but also become a resistance song after the British takeover following the F&I War. I wanted to learn some French Canadian song for French reenactors at vous and the Battle of PDC Wi. since a unit portraying the one that fought in that siege would come from Canada to participate in the event as it neared the 250th anniversary of the battle. From Ryan Kirk: Mary Scott Hey Jeremy here's a quick run at Oswald's variations on Mary Scott, a tune I learned from your podcast! I [am playing] an Aulos plastic [flute], copy of a 18th century Grenser. Very nice Instrument for the price. Thought about a wood one but humidity control in our old house is not great. From Dave Rowlands: This is 'La Bernardina' by Josquin des Pres (1450-1521). Not known as a composer for bagpipes, but the leading composer of his time. I have chosen this because a) it is a new find for me, b) because if pipers had access to this music and good instruments they would have played it, and c) because we should not be hidebound to 'tradition', just because it does not come from a bagpiping tradition, does not mean we cant play it, and i cite Amazing Grace as just one case. This is played by Three Swayne D pipes, and one Swayne G pipe. I hope you like it and include it. Best wishes, Dave R From Charlie Rutan: Tu Scendi Dalle Stelle is the traditional Italian Christmas carol played by zampognari. Originally called 'Quanno Nascente Ninno', it was written down in 1754 by St Alphonsus Ligouri, with text in the Neapolitan language: and became so popular that it was later translated into Italian and became 'TU SCENDI DALLE STELLE', undergoing several small changes in its melody during that process. The melody probably existed in various forms for several centuries prior to its 1754 transcription, and is still a basis for many improvised PASTORELLES by zampognari today. I'm playing both Ciaramella ( the Italian folk oboe) and Sei Palmi Zampogna on this track. 'Sei palmi' refers to the length of the instrument's longest chanter, measured by the outsretched palm of the pipe maker's hand, much like the 'cubit' of the ancient world. Zampongne have existed in this form since at least the early 1300's; where we have evidence of the instrument being played in frescoes dated to that time. The zampogna is endemic to southern Italy, exists in about 20 different iterations in several sizes, and is a thriving bagpipe tradition to this day.

It's corkers and Blarney Stones as NostalgiaCast takes a transatlantic trip back in time to discuss Ron Howard's FAR AND AWAY, starring Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman. Jonny and Darin kick off their 1992 retrospective by welcoming Ruth and Rae of the Paperback Flicks podcast to chat about the history of Irish immigrants and the American frontier, along with the sweeping panoramic vistas, overblown Oir-ish accents, and megawatt star chemistry that made this period romantic drama a minor classic.

Socialists in the 1920s were part of a global, interconnected network of hope and solidarity. For a brief period, the locus of this transnational movement was the Hotel Lux in Moscow, where international communists — including Irish men and women — lived, hung out, and fell in love. To really capture the hopes and desires of these disparate friends and lovers requires moving beyond dry socialist history, and into the personal lives of these friendship networks. The historian Maurice J. Casey joins us on the pod to discuss his new book Hotel Lux: An Intimate History of Communism's Forgotten Radicals. We ask all the big questions: what drew these people to Moscow? How did these people navigate questions of love, friendship, and family? And would Glen get laid in the Hotel Lux lobby? Support the show

Scott, a listener from Arisaig, Scotland sets today's first question  - “We have rebranded tourism, to backpacking, walking, cycling, mountaineering and exploring etc, so as to get an authentic experience of a place. Though in getting that authentic experience, often we turn a blind eye and we see places how we want to, not how they really are. In ways that fit our own narrative, maybe overly romantic? Maybe that's why when we revisit a place it often is not as good as we remember it? So those authentic experiences are skewed and informed by our own internal habits and processes. We readily overlook the impacts we are having, behaving like sheep, following the crowd, and going on mass to get these authentic experiences?”Join co-hosts Stuart and William on a wild ride through the contradictory world of travel. Stuart argues that all that backpacking, hiking, and cycling is mere "passing through"—nothing like truly diving into the heart of a culture. He even recounts safari adventures that leave you questioning if you're witnessing nature or a scene from a horror flick (spoiler: those animals aren't just posing for a selfie—they're feasting without mercy!). Meanwhile, William champions the power of local interactions, insisting that true cultural insights come from chatting with the locals, not ticking off tourist landmarks on a map.In each episode, our duo engages in a hilarious tug-of-war: Is travel about immersing yourself in the raw, unpredictable pulse of a foreign land, or merely curating a safe, picture-perfect postcard life? Stuart's anti-tourism stance collides with William's conscious, soul-searching travel vibe, leaving no cliché unchallenged and no tourist untouched. Their final piece of advice? If you're going to be a tourist, do it sustainably—think outside the mass flock and embrace your inner rebel.Strap in for candid debates, laugh-out-loud stories, and a fresh perspective on how travel can either be a genuine adventure or just another scheduled excursion. Tune in, because when authenticity meets absurdity, the conversation is anything but ordinary!What unconventional travel mishap or unexpected local encounter has made you question your holiday choices? Let's keep the conversation going!Oisin, from Cork, Ireland sets the second question  - Oisin's QuestionHistory isn't just written—it's wielded. In this thought-provoking chat, Stuart and William unravel the complexities of Ireland's past and its lingering impact on today. From the historic rivalry between Fianna Fáil and Fine Gael to the British government's strategic hands-off approach that allowed internal strife to flourish, they explore how political maneuvering has shaped nations.Stuart delves into how famines can be leveraged for social change, citing the Irish famine as a tragic example where suffering became an opportunity—intentional or not. Meanwhile, William sheds light on the erasure of Irish history in British education and asks: What do we conveniently forget, and why? The conversation expands to immigration, drawing parallels between past acceptance of Irish migrants in America and current hostility toward newcomers.Together, they emphasize a vital message: We must acknowledge history without weaponizing it—learning from past injustices without falling into the trap of blame. Tune in for an educational deep dive that challenges perceptions and uncovers the hidden forces shaping societies today.Which overlooked moments in history have shaped the world more than we realize?

In this episode, I'm joined by Dr. Padraic Scanlan. Padraic is an associate professor at the University of Toronto. His research focuses on the history of labor in Britain and the British empire. He's the author of three books, including Freedom's Debtors: British Antislavery in Sierra Leone in the Age of Revolutions and Slave Empire: How Slavery Made Modern Britain. His newest book, out this year, is called Rot: An Imperial History of the Irish Famine, and it offers a reinterpretation of the Irish Great Famine of the mid-1800s that shows how massive income inequality, debt, housing prices, precarious employment and more contributed to the disaster. I spoke with Padraic about how he thinks about writing for a general audience, his work with a developmental editor and why he loves editors, and his writerly inspirations.

Patrick O'Donnell, a retired sergeant with 25 years of police experience, shares insights from his law enforcement career and transition to writing and podcasting. He discusses the realities of police work, including memorable cases and the importance of community policing. Patrick reflects on the challenges and rewards of the job, from high-stakes situations to heartwarming moments of making a difference. He also delves into his Irish heritage and how it influences his writing. The conversation explores the role of true crime media in shaping public understanding of justice and the balance between authenticity and storytelling in crime narratives. Patrick's journey from cop to author offers a unique perspective on bridging the gap between law enforcement and creative storytelling.Patricks Webpagehttps://copsandwriters.com/Patricks Facebook pagehttps://www.facebook.com/groups/copsandwriters/Patricks Patreonhttps://www.patreon.com/copsandwritersFollow Patricks Podcast on Spotifyhttps://open.spotify.com/show/7LIkW87ZQL34n3vXXrIOKKFollow Patrick on YouTubehttps://www.youtube.com/@patrickodonnell7928The Good Collarhttps://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B0D51SGS3C?linkCode=gs2&tag=insanityiscon-21Join me over on Patreon for extra perks https://www.patreon.com/IrelandCrimesandMysteriesEarly access to episodes, monthly livestreams where we will be discussing the cases I've covered, and much more as we build our own community.

The Good Friday Agreements of 1998 marked a turning point in Irish history, bringing an end to three decades known as The Troubles and laying a course for a better future for the people of Ireland. In this historian Mark Doyle and Friends of Sinn Féin Executive Director Greg O'Loughlin join us for a conversation about Irish history, the status of Irish unification, and how peace is possible even in the hardest of times.   Dr. Mark Doyle is Professor of History at Middle Tennessee State University where he specializes in the history of Ireland and Great Britain.

In this episode of Ireland Crimes and Mysteries we delve into the brutal murder of Irene White in 2005. Host Nules recounts the tragic story of a mother of three stabbed 34 times in her Dundalk home. The podcast explores the complex investigation, including anonymous tips from Australia, the eventual arrest of the killer, and the surprising confession of middleman in what almost definitely was a murder for hire scenario. Despite these breakthroughs, the alleged mastermind behind the murder remains free. The episode highlights the relentless pursuit of justice by Irene's family and the ongoing quest to solve the final piece of this disturbing puzzle.Join me over on Patreon for extra perks https://www.patreon.com/IrelandCrimesandMysteriesEarly access to episodes, monthly livestreams where we will be discussing the cases I've covered, and much more as we build our own community.

Send us a textThe so-called Irish Potato Famine between 1845 and 1852 killed up to one million people and led to the emigration of hundreds of thousands of others. It left a deep imprint on Irish, European and American history and memory. But this was not a natural catastrophe, argues economic historian Padraic Scanian. He sees the famine as a result of globalisation, and of a very Victorian determination to let the market do its work and discipline the undeserving poor. The stereotype of the lazy Irishman was born out of the quasi colonial perspective of large landowners and London bureaucrats. The famine may be in the past, Padraic observes, but the mechanisms that led to it may still be more present than we think.Support the show

Melvyn Bragg and guests discuss one of the best known events and figures in Irish history. In 1014 Brian Boru, High King of Ireland, defeated the Hiberno-Norse forces of Sigtrygg Silkbeard and allies near their Dublin stronghold, with Brian losing his life on the day of battle. Soon chroniclers in Ireland and abroad were recording and retelling the events, raising the status of Brian Boru as one who sacrificed himself for Ireland, Christ-like, a connection reinforced by the battle taking place on Good Friday.

Diverse Voices Book Review host Hopeton Hay interviewed Forest Issac Jones, author of GOOD TROUBLE: The Selma, Alabama and Derry, Northern Ireland Connection 1963-1972. Jones discovered the connection between the Catholic Civil Rights Movement in Northern Ireland and the Black Civil Rights Movement during a 2021 visit to Belfast. He highlights  the parallels between the movements, including how the 1969 Belfast to Derry Catholic Civil Rights March in Northern Ireland was influenced by the 1965 Selma to Montgomery Civil Rights March. Forest Issac Jones is an award-winning author of non-fiction and essays, specializing in the study of Irish History, the US Civil Rights Movement and Northern Ireland.  Diverse Voices Book Review Social Media: Facebook - @diversevoicesbookreview Instagram - @diverse_voices_book_review Twitter - @diversebookshay Email: hbh@diversevoicesbookreview.com

Forest Isaac Jones is an award-winning author of non-fiction and essays, specializing in the study of Irish History, the US Civil Rights Movement and Northern Ireland. His latest essay, ‘The Civil Rights Connection Between The USA and Northern Ireland' was awarded honorable mention in the category of nonfiction essay by Writer's Digest in their 93rd annual writing competition. In this interview, he discusses his new book Good Trouble: The Selma, Alabama and Derry, Northern Ireland Connection 1963-1972 (First Hill Books, 2025). Good Trouble investigates the strong connection between the Black Civil Rights Movement in the United States and the Catholic Civil Rights Movement in Northern Ireland – specifically the influence of the Montgomery to Selma march on the 1969 Belfast to Derry march through oral history, based on numerous interviews of events leading up to both marches and afterwards. This is close to the author's heart as both of his parents marched to integrate lunch counters and movie theatres in Salisbury, North Carolina, in 1963 as college students. His mother was at the 1963 March to Washington where Martin Luther King gave his ‘I Have a Dream' speech. Jones travelled to Dublin, Belfast and Derry to conduct interviews for the book. In all, he did fifteen interviews with people who were involved in the movement in Northern Ireland (including Billy McVeigh – featured in the BAFTA winning documentary, Once Upon A Time In Northern Ireland) and in the United States (including Richard Smiley and Dr. Sheyann Webb-Christburg – both were at Bloody Sunday in Alabama and on the Selma to Montgomery march among others). Jones was also able to talk with Eamonn McCann, who took part in the Belfast to Derry march in 1969. Unlike most books on Northern Ireland, this goes into detail about the connection and the influence between the two movements. Also, most focus on Bloody Sunday and not the pivotal incidents at Burntollet Bridge and the Battle of the Bogside. Building off of unprecedented access and interviews with participants in both movements, Jones crafts a gripping and moving account of these pivotal years for both countries.

In all, he did fifteen interviews with people who were involved in the movement in Northern Ireland (including Billy McVeigh – featured in the BAFTA winning documentary, Once Upon A Time In Northern Ireland) and in the United States (including Richard Smiley and Dr. Sheyann Webb-Christburg – both were at Bloody Sunday in Alabama and on the Selma to Montgomery march among others). Jones was also able to talk with Eamonn McCann, who took part in the Belfast to Derry march in 1969. Unlike most books on Northern Ireland, this goes into detail about the connection and the influence between the two movements. Also, most focus on Bloody Sunday and not the pivotal incidents at Burntollet Bridge and the Battle of the Bogside. Building off of unprecedented access and interviews with participants in both movements, Jones crafts a gripping and moving account of these pivotal years for both countries.

Imagine John Wick. Only instead of losing his puppy, he's lost his entire family because the British let them freeze to death. And imagine now that they're all in Ireland and it's the middle of the Famine. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you Black '47. Joining us to talk about this film and the misconceptions around the Irish Potato Famine is Padraic Scanlan, author of the new book Rot: An Imperial History of the Irish Famine. This movie is bonkers and actually has a lot to say on Irish history. And this conversation won't leave you hungry. About our guest:Padraic Scanlan is an Associate Professor at the Centre for Industrial Relations and Human Resources, cross-appointed to the Centre for Diaspora & Transnational Studies. He is also a Research Associate at the Center for History and Economics at Harvard University and the University of Cambridge, and a Fellow of St. Michael's College.His research focuses on the history of labour, enslaved and free, in Britain and the British empire during the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries. He is currently in the early stages of research on a new project, on the transformation of the line between ‘home' and ‘work' in the industrial era. His most recent book, Rot: An Imperial History of the Irish Famine, out now from Robinson Books and Basic Books, reinterprets the history of the Irish Great Famine (1845-1851). In the first half of the nineteenth century, nowhere in Europe – or the world – did the working poor depend as completely on potatoes as in Ireland. To many British observers, potatoes were evidence of a lack of modernity and ‘civilization' among the Irish. Ireland before the Famine, however, more closely resembled capitalism's future than its past. Irish labourers were paid some of the lowest wages in the British empire, and relied on the abundance of the potato to survive. He shows how the staggering inequality, pervasive debt, outrageous rent-gouging, precarious employment, and vulnerability to changes in commodity prices that torment so many in the twenty-first century were rehearsed in the Irish countryside before the potatoes failed.

In this episode, I explore the ruins of a Temple and the intriguing concept of societal collapse and its relevance to Irish history. Often depicted as dramatic and apocalyptic, societal collapse is a topic that has captured the imagination of historians and the public alike. But how accurate is this narrative especially when applied to Ireland's past? Join me as I explore if events like the Great Hunger can be considered a societal collapse!Check out my new podcast 'Transatlantic: An Irish American History Podcast' with Damian Shiels https://linktr.ee/transatlanticpod Become a member at https://plus.acast.com/s/irishhistory.

In 1975, two young boys in Tuam were exploring the grounds of one of Ireland's abandoned Mother and Baby Homes when they lifted up a loose concrete slab and found several tiny human skulls hidden underneath. Over three decades later, this discovery would lead to the uncovering of another massive and shocking Catholic scandal, centered around some of the worst crimes committed against young women and their babies in modern world history.  True Tales of Hallow's Eve 4.
