A fascin@ting story about music from Ireland...from U2 to Bob Geldof, Liam Clancy to Pete Seeger, Moya Brennan talks to internationally celebrated musicians about the rich diversity of music from Ireland. Credit to Director Liam McGrath http://www.scratchfilms.com/the-music-of-what-happens/, part of the RTÉ.Big.Music.Week 2010 Starting with her own introduction to pop as Radio Caroline beamed into the Donegal highlands, Moya Brennan traces the influences on Irish music of jazz, rock, punk and other music from outside Ireland since the Sixties, through her conversations with a who's-who of Irish music -- including Christy Moore, Paddy Moloney, Donal Lunny, Sinead O'Connor, Finbar Furey, Dolores O'Riordan, Shane McGowan, Adam Clayton, Bono, Damien Dempsey, Bob Geldof, Liam Clancy, Paul Brady, Bill Whelan and John Sheehan. There's an old story of the hero Fionn Mac Cumhail. Fionn asks his followers, "What is the finest music in the world?" They suggest answers: the cuckoo calling from the hedge, the ring of a spear on a shield, the baying of a pack of hounds, the laughter of a gleeful girl. "All good music," agrees Fionn."But what," they ask, "is best?" Fionn answers: "The music of what happens."
