Click below to hear another track from our CD, Marc plays a air on a low A whistle. The tune
is called Anach Cuan. Anach Cuan is the village of Annaghdown in Co Galway. In 1828 a boat called An Caisleán
Nua (The Newcastle) set off from Annaghdown to a fair in Galway City. There were 31 passangers and 10 sheep on board as well
as other items for sale at the fair. When they got to within 2 miles of their destination, A sheep stamped a hole in
the floor of the rotten boat and it sank in minutes. 19 drowned, 12 survived. This song written by Antaine Ó Raifteirí
recounts the tragedy.

"A" whistle.
