An Cábla agus an t-Amhrán - YouTube

Well, this short film by the Irish Traditional Music Archive is right up my alley! It looks at the first transatlantic telegraph cable and the traditional music of West Kerry, particularly the song Ámhrán na Leabhar: From the naomhóg, which for centuries connected the islands, peninsulas and coastal communities of Uíbh Ráthach, to the arrival of the world’s first successful transatlantic telegraph cable at Valentia, An Cábla agus an tAmhrán reveals a remarkable continuity: while technologies evolve, humanity’s desire to communicate, remember and pass stories from one generation to the next remains unchanged. adactio.com/links/22811
