' PORTRAIT OF IRELAND'

on BBC Home Service Basic

View in Radio Times

Drawn from the songs and verses of the Irish people by Maurice Brown This Irish anthology has been chosen to show something of Irish life-its towns and countryside, its race-meetings, fiddlers, fairies, and tinkers. The songs will be traditional, including some of Moore's Irish Melodies, and the poems are selected from the works of Mangan, Lover, Yeats, Allingham, Joyce, Strong, Stephens, Synge, and others.
