Episode 252 - Collaborations - The Song of Amergin with Jenny Ní Rusiéil

Welcome back to the Candlelit Tales podcast.

And another wonderful collaboration episode. In these sporadic episodes, we’re fortunate enough to collaborate with a few very special musicians. We’re a fan of their work and they also happen to be a fan of ours.

We have always been grateful for any collaborations we have created, performed and worked on with other artists. And since music has always been a backbone to our stories, we decided to take a few people up on their offers to collaborate on a few stories.

In this episode, Sorcha Tells the story of the coming of the Sons of Mil, and the song of Amergin. And Jenny Ní Rusiéil’s beautiful melody floats throughout it with haunting vocals to add to the atmosphere.

Just wait till the song at the end! It is inspired by the song of Amergin, and she blended in her musicality to back Sorcha’s telling of this story.

Since the death of my soul mate, the father of my young child who died suddenly in our home 2 months ago i have listened to and read many things on grief and death, but nothing as beautiful or as profound as this.Thankyou for your work, what a profound and poetic description of grief.
