/ dedicate this book to the memory of my wife n-ho was a Noble helpmate and Inspiration to me "^

in all my work and especially in my Gaelic work.

The Irish language has come to stay; prejudice and narrow-mindedness may hinder, but can no long-er

stem the tide of its advancement. As the language advances, so will also the demand for the music born af

that language.

In order that this music be understood, I once more reiterate its underlying.principles which are as fol -

lows. Though our modern major scale is sometimes met with, (which is really mode thirteen of the Gregorian

modes) the modern minor scale, melodic or harmonic form, has no place whatever in this music, the airs being

entirely modal, the ecclesiastical modes being the basis of their <?oii9truction; to. each air notes have been ap-

pended explaining its mode. Though micro tones are quite audible in the singing of the traditional singers,we

know that these existed among the plain chant singers before the advent of. the organ. We also know that, in

spite of- the key board temperament, the finer the ear of the professional singer, the more likely he is to make

slight deviations from the key board temperament as do also good Violinists. I have found by listening to

traditional singers, that the modal basis is the only one which can give us a sure guiding principle. Though

the Ulan pipe (the only genuine Irish instrument left to us) is a free temperament instrument, no doubt, the

ancient Irish harp, was a fixed temperament instrument and the harpers played in the modes, first, because

they had no pedals and secondly to avoid the necessity of retuning, their instruments forbade any other con-

dition of things.

It must be clearly understood, that the accentuation of Irish poetry is the true guide to the rhythm of the

music which must be in all cases subservient to the rhythm of the poetry which is assonantal and totally dif-

ferent in construction to English verse; let our teachers of singing once try to realise this fact and they will

endeavour to master a rhythm and phrasing which at first sight seems peculiar and arbitrary, but which, in

reality, is based on sound principles. If our non-Irish speaking teachers of singing would take the trouble

to sing for themselves the English version given with each song, they would get as good an idea of the or-

iginal accentuation as could be gained by a non-Irish speaker. I have made the English version myself so as

to tally as far as possible syllable for syllable with the Gaelic, to show the non-Gaelic speaker what the real

Irish accentuation is and I have spared no pains to make the English version a reflex of the original.

As in part two of this work, so here, I have endeavoured to follow the principles advocated and exempli-

fied by the best exponents of traditional singing. I am particularly indebted to Mai^jieat) tu 2lnna54m for all

the explanation and illustrations she has given me and for many songs which I have taken down from her.

Though I am heartil5'^ in sympathy witii those who would wish to see a school of Original Irish Music, I

think it is necessary before the advent of such a school of composition that musicians clearly understand the

proper method of syllabling Irish poetry as known to the traditional singers; when this has been mastered,

then, and not till then, shall we have true original Irish composition. Anglo-Irish poetry and music is but a

poor makeshift for the real thing -— No National language, no National art.

I have to thank Cai^l baoi^ill who has transcribed the Sol-fa notation so carefully over the staff

notes under my direction; this has been done to bring the melodies within reach of all. I have to thank Liam

"O0CJI1CJ15 who also assisted xxy transcribing and correcting the words. I have to thank those from whom1 collected the airs and those who transcribed for me the wprds from the singers. I thank 21oiT)niiii Mac 5jiea-

5oi|ifor ""OotimaU a-jur Ko'tia5"and other Rathlin Island songs which will be printed in due course. We owe a

debt of gratitude to '^o\t)\\\\x\ Hac Sitea^oiit who has done real earnest work for the restoring and collecting of

Rathlin Island stories and songs.

I dedicate this book to the memory of my wife who was a Noble helpmate and Inspiration to me in ail

my work and especially in my Gaelic work.

This air I took from Mrs. Clandillon (TTlai-^iieup TIT 21nnaT;a'm) Clonakilty, Co. Cork. It is, I consider, one of thefiiipst examples, in its riiythm of the nttentioit and care the Gaelic speakers bestow on their poetry and syll-

abic accent as being the essential puit of the music.The melodic and harmonic minor scales are modern innovations, and this air is in neither, but in a scale withthe flat sixth and seventh ascending as well as, descending. (Lah mode.") The accbmpnniment has been writtenin the spirit of this scale, and with the closest nttention to the details of the rhjihm of the words. c c H.o

This song must be taken accordintj to the metronome, not too fast. In the la.st bar of the Chorus the note D was in the

original. This leading note did not seem in keeping with an Irish air and as some sing C instead of D, I have written Cin this version.
