We have often drove passed this sign going to Killarney. The other day on our way to Lidl in Kenmare we stopped and took these photographs. |
We had never heard of the poet and composer Ernest John Moeran. Like myself he had and Irish father. He served in the First World War and was badly injured and had to have a metal plate in his head. He loved Norfolk, Herefordshire and Ireland. He settled there and died in his fifties. I have been listening to some of his work on You Tube this week. I think his music is wonderful. On his headstone it says: He rests in the mountain country he loved so well.
Killowen church is a gothic ruin and even without a roof it looks amazing.
I found this wonderful video on You Tube about Ernest John Moeran. Many thanks for making and posting the video on You Tube.
Next stop. the 5 Bells ;-)
ReplyDeleteYou know your stuff GWil. Have you been in the 5 Bells? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed the video Dave, lovely music. I have never heard of him either. Shame he is so little known and the unfinished symphony. Thanks for telling us about him.
ReplyDeleteHi Rachel. He use to collect folk songs from Norfolk, Herefordshire, Kent and Ireland. I find him fascinating. Thanks!
DeleteLovely music. Must see if I can find some of his music which has been put into sheet music for the piano.
ReplyDelete.....................and just came back to your blog after a quick look on the Internet, only to find that there is very little of his music available as sheet music, and what there was too technically difficult. So will just have to listen to his music via YT
I am glad you like the music Vera. Have a listen to: The White Mountain. We both know this familiar tune which mentions Bantry Bay. Thanks!

How Herbal Medicine Cured me completely. Does anyone still doubt natural herbs? I've seen the great importance of natural supplements and the wonderful work they have done in people's lives. I wonder why people still spend their money on surgery, injections and drugs each time they are sick. My Diabetes was totally cured with natural herbs. Earlier this year I was diagnosed type 2 diabetes and my blood sugar was very high, I was recommended to use insulin medication which later have side effect on my health, I decided to stop using insulin medication and was recommended to use Herbal medicine after I read series of testimony of doctor ELINFOH Herbal medicine on the internet, bloggers site and radio stations, I purchased Dr.ELINFOH herbal medicine for diabetes which he sent to my address through a delivery company and I received the herbal medicine within a couple of weeks and the doctor directed me how to use the herbal medicine for 21 days. After concluding the herbal medicine I decided to go for a blood test and my blood sugar was detected to be normal, Today I am diabetes free with no side effects. Contact Dr ELINFOH via email: drelinfohherbalhome@gmail.com or Call/Whatsapp +2348110492072 for more information. He said he has herbal remedies for; Hepatitis, Kidney diseases, Heart diseases, Cancers, High blood pressure, Fat reducing, Infertility, Lyme diseases, Herpes Virus, Cold Sores, Shingles, rectum diseases.
