Sí Bheag Sí Mhór on uilleann pipes

Описание: Sí Bheag Sí Mhór is a tune normally attributed to the blind harper Turlough O'Carolan from around 1670 – 1738. I love it for it's melody. But it also reminds me of a man I once knew who would sing a powerful song to this air. It's commonly requested during weddings and it sounds particularly nice in a church setting. Imagine that it is said that this was likely Turlough O'Carolan's first composition! It's quite amazing but hardly surprising considering the amazing music he would go on to create during his life time.
