Deirdre's Lament for the Sons of Usnach is a atmospheric, ethereal Celtic musical tale (dated about 1140).
The Legend of Deirdre is a traditional Irish tale, at least a thousand years old, containing all the elements of magic, beauty, prophecy, fate, faith, romantic love, brotherly love, war, and transcendent death. Deirdre's great beauty - and fate - is foretold at birth, and ultimately there's no escape. Like Helen of Troy, her beauty provokes war. |
