Cantus Hibernici is a book of traditional Irish songs, compiled and arranged by the Irish poet and songwriter Thomas Moore. Originally published in 1856, the book contains over 100 songs in both English and Irish Gaelic, with musical notation and lyrics provided for each.The songs cover a range of themes, from love and nature to Irish history and politics. Many of the pieces are well-known Irish folk songs, such as The Last Rose of Summer and Believe Me, If All Those Endearing Young Charms, while others are lesser-known gems of Irish music.Moore's arrangements of the songs are known for their lyrical beauty and sensitivity, and he often added his own verses or adapted the lyrics to fit his own poetic style. The book also includes a preface by Moore, in which he discusses the history and importance of Irish music and its role in preserving Irish culture.Cantus Hibernici is a valuable resource for anyone interested in Irish music or culture, and remains a beloved classic of Irish song to this day.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
