Bearded Fiddler (The): annotations
X:1 % T:The Bearded Fiddler R:jig C:Ed Reavy M:6/8 L:1/8 Z:Joe Reavy N:Farley was a great tramp fiddler who roamed through Monaghan and N:Cavan on fair days. His daughter sold the family wares as he played N:to the delight of their customers. Ed recalled one day that Farley N:played so beautifully that the daughter threw her arms around him N:in a burst of spontaneous joy. Ed never forgot the wholesome feelings N:expressed there, nor did he fail to recognize the life-warming N:secrets shared by those who love the music of Ireland.
