Happy St. Patrick’s Day! In case you missed “Sweetness and Light” on Saturday, here’s Philadelphia composer Romeo Cascarino’s arrangement of “Danny Boy.” It’s part of a recent release of that also includes “Pathways of Love,” eight songs on texts by Sara Teasdale, Eugene Field, Robert Frost, and others, now available as digital downloads. A composer of the name Romeo Cascarino might not be the first you would associate with this best-known of traditional Irish melodies, but a good, public domain folk tune belongs to the world – and Cascarino brings something special to it. Sample it now on YouTube.
