Casadh an tSúgáin (The Twisting of the Rope) - Irish Air for Solo Cello"
Description:
Experience the haunting beauty of Casadh an tSúgáin (The Twisting of the Rope), a traditional Irish air arranged for solo cello by Ilse de Ziah. Inspired by Iarla Ó Lionáird’s rendition in the film Brooklyn, this arrangement transforms the lilting melody into a slow, evocative air, capturing the poignant story behind the song.
The piece tells the tale of a man tricked by a mother’s cunning plan to keep him from marrying her daughter. As he twists hay into a rope for her thatched roof, he is led further from the house until she cuts the rope and locks him out. This emotional narrative is reflected in the music, with a fast, effective passage symbolising the twisting of the rope.
