Annotation:Poor Irish Boy
Back to Poor Irish Boy
POOR IRISH BOY. Irish. This melody must have impressed Classical composer G.F. Handel during his nine month stay in Ireland as it was copied out in musical setting in a MS book of his which was in the Fitzwilliam Museum at the turn of the (20th) century (Flood, 1906).
