Dipping into the treasure trove of Irish declarations of love through song and verse, this show dramatically brings to life the raw emotions at their core. Placing ancient songs into a modern context, this bilingual performance opens up that trove and opens our eyes and ears to the ecstacy and agony endured by dreamers and songsmiths throughout the ages. By visualising the spirit of each verse and weaving them together, the audience is brought on an exhilarating journey which combines singing, recitation, and music on saxophone, harp, uilleann pipes, and flute. Human nature never changes, which is why these timeless verses and sean-nós songs are as relevant today as they were when they were first heard.
Léiriú ar an mothúchán is tábhachtaí dá bhfuil ann atá anseo; léiriú ar an ngrá mar a fhaighimid sa traidisiún Gaelach é. Seanamhráin chlasaiceacha taobh leis an nua-fhilíocht le scéal grá a insint ina bhfeicimid an briseadh croí, an paisean, an brón agus an tréigean, agus grá rúnda. Faighimid léamh úr ar na hamhráin nuair a fheicimid i gcomhthéacs nua-aimseartha iad agus léiriú físiúil á ndéanamh ar chuid acu. Le scoth na hamhránaíochta ar an sean-nós, agus ceol cruite agus sacsafóin, léiriú is ea é seo a rachaidh i bhfeidhm ar an lucht féachana go smior.
