Aisling Gael

A great slow air from the san nos style

Aisling geal

Beautiful song air ; have heard it on Martin McCormack's CD - Uilleann Pipes and Whistles. Martin calls it 'Aisling Gheal' with the following description: This song-air derives from the vision poem tradition of Ireland where poets wrote deferentially about their vision of the country, often in the imagery of a beautiful woman. He first heard it sung by Iarla O'Lionard and it is believed to have originated in the West-Cork Gaeltacht area of Baile Bhuirne.

Aisling Geal recording

Liam O'Flynn has recorded this on 'The Poet and the Piper' album with Seamus Heaney. It is exquisite. If the hairs on the back of your neck are not standing to attention on hearing this, you may need medical help!
