Bright Star of the West: Joe Heaney, Irish Song Man - American Musicspheres
Williams, Sean (Professor of Ethnomusicology, Professor of Ethnomusicology, Evergreen State College)
Bright Star of the West examines the life, repertoire, and influence of Ireland's greatest sean-nos (old-style) singer, Joe Heaney (1919-1984). Best known for popularising this form of Gaelic a cappella folk song in the United States, authors Seans Williams and Lillis O Laoire reveal the ways in which Heaney's life story demonstrates the intertwining of music with political memory and cultural understanding.
