Other Musicians / Ná Féileacáin
« on: July 18, 2020, 10:27:56 AM »
Ná Féileacáin is a US-based, independent artist on SoundCloud that adapts Irish language music into English. There isn't much information on them or their work since they appear to be relatively new on the scene.

While by no means perfect, their translations are relatively close to the original texts. Some ... creative liberties... were taken in the case of "Dúlamán," but it does capture the basics of what's going down.

As far as I'm aware, CW has performed all 5 of the songs they have recorded.

Cailleadh é san Aistriúchán: Lost in Translation (2019)

New Members / A quick intro
« on: January 03, 2020, 09:06:59 PM »
Dia daoibh, a chairde!

Is mise Kevin. Tá Béarla agus beagán Gaeilge agam. However, as this is an English-language forum, I'll stick to posting as Béarla.

I was first introduced to Celtic Woman in 2015 when I had to research Irish music for a performance of Brian Friel's Translations that I was sound designing. While it wasn't suited to the play, I grew quite fond of Celtic Woman's music and have been hooked ever since, so much so that I wrote a paper and a presentation on their renditions of "Sadhbh Ní Bhruinneallaigh"/"Sive" and "Mo Ghile Mear" for one of my uni classes.

Since declaring a favorite performer seems to be the trend in these intro posts, I would say mine is probably be Éabha McMahon.
