about

The Ashokan farewell is a modern American waltz composed by Jay Ungar. Blind Mary is another O'Carolan composition in honour of the harper Máire Dhall. Like Carolan, she was blind, though this is perhaps not as great a coincidence as you might at first think - it was not uncommon for blind youngsters of Carolan's time to enter the trade of musician, harper and bard.
