Publisher's Synopsis

Songs of Donegal is a collection of traditional Irish songs compiled by Patrick Macgill and published in 1921. The book features lyrics and sheet music for over 50 songs, including ballads, love songs, laments, and humorous tunes. Many of the songs are in the Irish language, with English translations provided. The collection offers a glimpse into the rich musical culture of Donegal, a county in the north-west of Ireland known for its distinctive style of traditional music. Macgill, a writer and journalist from the area, was passionate about preserving the songs and stories of his community, and Songs of Donegal is a testament to his dedication to this cause. The book is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Irish music and culture, and a celebration of the enduring power of traditional song.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
