Thank you! I know of 3 variants to the tune. One variant references the 15th brigade of the Republican Army. I read that this brigade also happened to be the 5th International Brigade before being incorporated into the army proper. So either apparently works! Also there is a different song with the same title about Irish socialists who fought in the brigade but I do not know it well.
Mounsieur Jack, were you considering to make some tutorials, specially of Ay Carmela or Hasta Siempre Comandante? I'm too jealous, I must start play this haha
Love the music, would you consider doing any more US civil war Union songs(enjoyed marching through georgia) e.g. the fall of charlston, the army of the free/the wearing of the green(irish republican song with same tune, not sure which came first). Also any left-wing songs from people like Woody Guthrie or Ewan Maccoll. Just some ideas, you are one of the best pianists on youtube!
Thank you! You could take "Solidarity Forever," which I did, as the "Battle Hymn of the Republic." I did the Billy Bragg version of "There is Power in a Union" a long time ago which is the same tune as "Battle Cry of Freedom." I'd like to redo it eventually. I'm also a fan of those irish/civil-war crossovers; Rising of the Moon came first! The folk music as well... there's quite a lot so I don't think I'll run out any time soon! haha, thanks for the positive feedback and suggestions!
How could I forget the rising of the moon! As to it being older though, the risng of the moon was written in 1866 by John Keegan Casey, I can't seem to find when the wearing of the green words were written but the tune is certainly older than 1866 (the army of the free is a american civil war song so written 1861-5). Either way the wearing of the green and the wearing of the green are both about the Irish rebellion of 1798, the Irish had 10,000 men but only 1,000 guns, hence the pikes in the song. @@MonsieurJack95
@@louiskingston7718 ah you're right, my bad! I always thought Rising of the Moon was the original! But yeah I've played with the tune a few times... have struggled to turn it into anything on piano but I'll keep returning to it every now and then until something clicks haha
It's so good... Beautiful!
The song sounds better on piano
hey, a small correction: it is de "quinta" brigada. "Quinta/o" in spanish means fifth. "Quince" means fifteen.
