about

Cill Chais, the traditional folk poem, is recited by Catherine Pryce and Elaine Fahy, recorded in Clifden, County Galway, July 2007. The sounds of this traditional poem are broken up and the sounds of striking rocks underscores the violence done to the words. It was excerpted from An Duanaire 1600-1900, Poems of the Dispossessed, edited and translated by Seán Ó Tuama and Thomas Kinsella, and published by Foras na Gaelige, 1981. It echoes the sounds of stones breaking as houses were tumbled or destroyed and tenants evicted during the famine.

Echo’s Sepulchre, elements of Ivan Goff’s piece are included.

Song from South Sudan, recorded by Natasha Ivins in Sudan, December 2005.
