The Coulin

About this film

Irish bagpipes solo, Okeh 4490, John Muller - piano. Francis O’Neill considered this “The Queen of Irish Airs.” Its subject was an Irish hairstyle, long flowing locks, which the English attempted to ban in the 14th and 16th centuries. It was a great favorite of the old harpers and the pipers who suceeded them; Thomas Moore wrote verses in English to it as well.
