The Fields of Athenry (Guitar instrumental)

Музыка

"The Fields of Athenry" is an Irish folk ballad set during the Great Irish Famine or Great Irish Hunger (1845-1850) about a fictional man named Michael from near Athenry in County Galway who has been sentenced to transportation to Botany Bay, Australia, for stealing food for his starving family. It is a widely known and popular anthem for Irish sports supporters.
A big thank you to my Bulgarian friend, Peter Pesev of Unisound Studios, for producing the excellent backing track.
I hope you enjoy my instrumental version!

    Dear Geoff: I am the third of five children in my family. 2 siblings older...2 siblings younger. About 6 months ago my youngest sister developed gallbladder cancer. Gallbladder was removed. Still large tumor in duct. Couldn't remove, dangerous, too large, also next to major blood vessel. Did radiation and chemo. Was OK for a while. About last two or three months she went steadily 'downhill'. She died very early morning of Jan. 13th. Funeral this Tues. 25th. She was 65. She would have turned 66 on Mon. 24th. Hope all is well with you !! P.S. I turn 72 on Thurs. 27th. always thinking of you, and greatly appreciating your friendship and music !!! Larry L.

    Hello dear Larry. So sorry to hear of your sad news my friend. It is always a shock when deaths don't follow in their natural order. My father died before my grandmother. I have two older brothers, the elder has just had a mild stroke, which has stopped him being able to drive his classic cars. I was 74 on December 23rd, and hopefully have a few years left. Take good care! Geoff.

    My take on this is that , the then people in charge have no choice but to get people to settle in Australia. The “normal” people won’t go willingly to Australia in those days, so the authorities have to resort to sending political prisoners. They are not the hardcore “convicts”, a notion that have been popularised in the literature. It’s a hard decision to make to gain such a piece of real estate that is so beautiful and so rich. Looking back the British, of the colonial days, are a people of immense foresight, although I don’t think much of them these days.

    I'm drawn back to this song tonight. Tnis song has a special place for me since we used to sing it in a trio I was in. One of the women, Anne, was from England. She had a lovely voice. Sadly she died from brain cancer, 'way too young. When I hear you play this and watch the backdrop it brings back the bittersweet memories. Thanks.

The other residents and staff said they liked me playing for my mum as they listened from the corridor. I miss doing it

    @@geoffers47 music is a powerful tool for people. It kept my mum going for months after I was told she wouldn't last a week. As I entered her room she would say " ah the music" but two days before she died , I walked into her room and she said " hello Janet" then whilst I was playing for her she said that all my practicing had paid off and that I had improved massively..... She had Alzheimer's and they say that they can become like their normal selves. It shows though that where you don't think they are listening , they are .

    Deaf Geoff: I hope all is well with you and your family. We celebrate "Thanksgiving" here on Thurs. the 24th. I don't think most people even know what it is about anymore. I was thinking, while listening to this song, that you play a good number of songs that are historically significant, but also show the real feelings and Christian heart of so many people. The joy that is shown in good times, and also the sadness and despair that can come in bad times. God is the only foundation of life and meaning. Such songs are a necessary file of history, truth, home, and belonging. I enjoy old buildings and remnants of homesteads (regardless of country), true and accurate history, and the reminder they give of people that have struggled and survived, trusting God to uphold them. Thanks for the selections that bring this out, and the excellent quality of your musicianship. I am very grateful to have you for a friend !! Note: I greatly appreciate the scenery and buildings that you show in your musical selections !!! They add so much to the "total picture" !!!! God bless you !!! LL

    Hi Larry. I try not to get too political, but British history is being re-written by immigrants, that successive governments have been allowing to enter the country. Important buildings and monuments are being defaced on a daily basis. I fear for future generations. I must stop myself there, as this is not really the place to have a rant! So pleased that you enjoy what i do! Best Wishes! Geoff.
