“Sweet Portaferry” is a lovely Irish air from Edward Bunting’s “The Ancient Music of Ireland”. Acting as scribe at the 1792 meeting of harpists in Belfast, Edward Bunting began collecting ancient music of Ireland. Being handed down from harpist to harpist and never written down, these songs were in danger of being lost forever. Join me in this session and be a part of saving the Ancient Music of Ireland! This session welcomes both single and double bowers.
