About fifteen years ago, I bought a folk music CD that featured a pretty fabulous guitar piece. It had the intriguing title “Musical Priest.” According to the liner notes, it’s a traditional Irish melody (how it got that name is anyone’s guess).
Now I have an affinity for things Irish, as you know if you were reading my blog this time last year. Basically, I’m a total wannabe.  And around mid-March, I usually turn green with envy (hah; pun intended) for anyone who gets to claim a direct link to the Emerald Isle.
So it seems like a great time to revisit “Musical Priest.” It’s really, really easy to feel Irish when you hear this sprightly little tune. And thanks to the wonder of YouTube, I’ve found a video of the song being played by — ready for this? — a real musical priest. That is seriously cool.
Enjoy!
