Irish Coffee & Celtic Music for St Patricks Day

Irish Coffee & Celtic Music for St Patricks Day

by 

This morning on “Sweetness and Light,” I’ll be hoisting an Irish coffee for St. Patrick’s Day.

Join me for a stirabout of Celtic-inflected works by Henry Cowell, Ina Boyle, Ludwig van Beethoven, Peter Hope, Ignaz Moscheles, A.J. Potter, and Romeo Cascarino. I know, not all of these composers are Irish, but isn’t everyone Irish on St. Patrick’s Day?

Philadelphia composer Romeo Cascarino will be represented by a luscious arrangement of “Danny Boy,” recently released as a digital download, alongside his transporting song cycle “Pathways of Love.”

Your pot of gold is but a click away, on “Sweetness and Light,” this Saturday morning at 11:00 EDT/8:00 PDT on KWAX, the radio station of the University of Oregon!

Stream it, wherever you are, at the link.
