from Carolan​/​Cage by Joseph Chester

about

My version of "Sí Bheag, Sí Mhór," which was probably the very first composition of the great blind harper Turlough O'Carolan (1670 -1738), composed at the house of his first patron, Squire George Reynolds of Lough Scur at Letterfain, Co. Leitrim. Sí Bheag and Sí Mhór were two ranges of hills near Lough Scur, which were the scene of a great battle, in which Finn McCool and his Fianna were defeated.
