Ag Criost an Siol
  • I have been told about a piece named “Ag Criost an Siol”. It is not the melody by Sean O Riada. I was told it was by T. O Suilleabhain. Does anyone have sheet music for this?

  • I have heard this piece and it is NOT the melody by Sean O Riada. I am not sure where it comes from then.
