Suantraí: An Irish Lullaby (MP3)

The songs here range from the ancient tradition of Suantraí (Irish Gaelic chant lullabies) handed down through many generations to more recent compositions by Irish musicians and poets. The Otherworld peopled by fairies and banshees who protect and threaten us, has been the main source of inspiration in the traditional Irish lullabies included in this collection. In her own compositions Pádraigín draws on this magic and mysterious world for inspiration too. The beautiful songs in this collection continue in that tradition and are sung equally to comfort both adults and children.
