The greatest short stories by Padraic O' Conaire

When Lugh of the Long Arm grew up, he went to King Nuada's fortress on the Hill of Tara to try to take his place with the other gods and goddesses. When Lugh arrived at the fortress, though, the guards wouldn't let him in without a unique skill. Lugh had many different skills-but would any of them be enough to get him into the Fortress of the Gods?This Irish myth is retold as a participation story with action words and gestures, making it perfect for reading aloud. The book also helps introduce children to the Irish language, or Gaeilge. Three versions of the story are included: the first in English, the second in English with action words in Irish, and the third version entirely in Irish which is good for Irish-language learners. The actions are the same in all three versions, acting as a bridge from English to Irish. With engaging black-and-white illustrations by the illustrator of Fionn MacCool and the Salmon of Knowledge.

Auch wenn die Kompositionen des blinden Harfenisten Turlough O'Carolan mittlerweile etwa 300 Jahre alt sind, so sind sie heute dennoch aktuell und in den Pubs der grünen Insel zu hören. Und nicht nur das, denn weltweit werden O'Carolan - Tunes von allen keltisch-orientierten Musikern geschätzt und aufgeführt. Jochen Tovote (bisherige Veröffentlichungen: "Irish Session Tunes", und "Irische Melodien für Akkordeon") bietet uns mit der vorliegenden Ausgabe bezaubernde O' Carolan - Bearbeitungen für Akkordeon und einer Reihe frei wählbarer Instrumente an. So kann die Melodie sowohl von der Flöte als auch der Violine übernommen werden; die zusätzlichen Akkordsymbole laden Gitarre, Mandoline und Bass dazu ein, mitzuspielen.
