| Ajoutée par magataganm, 05 Déc 2021 "The Minstrel Boy" is an Irish patriotic song written by Thomas Moore (1779–1852) who set it to the melody of The Moreen, an old Irish air. It is widely believed that Moore composed the song in remembrance of a number of his friends, whom he met while studying at Trinity College, Dublin and who had participated in (and were killed during) the Irish Rebellion of 1798. However this has never been definitively proved and the tune is also played by the British Army and Orange Order flute bands. The song gained widespread popularity and became a favourite of many Irishmen who fought during the American Civil War and gained even more popularity after World War I. The song is notably associated with organisations that historically had a heavy representation of Irish-Americans, in particular the police and fire departments of New York, Boston and Chicago and those of various other major US metropolitan areas, even after those organisations have ceased to have a substantial over-representation of personnel of Irish ancestry. The melody is frequently played, typically on bagpipes, at funerals of members and/or officers of such organisations who have died or been killed in service. Unsurprisingly, given its lyrics, it is also associated with the Irish Army and with traditionally Irish regiments in the armies of the United Kingdom and the United States, the United States Marine Corps (John Phillip Sousa, as director of the Marine Band incorporating elements into the Mother Hubbard March (1885)) as well as other armies of the world. It is Roud Folk Song Index no. 13867. Source: Wikipedia (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Minstrel_Boy). Although originally written for Traditional Irish instruments, I created this Interpretation of "The Minstrel Boy" for Flute & Celtic or Concert (Pedal) Harp. | |||
