Jennifer Cayley, Ellis Lynn Duschenes, Kim Kilpatrick, Marie Victoria Robertson and Anne Schmitz, and musician Kluane Takhini with The Music of What Happens: Stories of the Great Irish Hero, Finn Mac Cool
Warrior, lover, hunter, poet, Finn Mac Cool stands tall in the storied history of Ireland. Beloved captain of the Fianna, he leads that glorious band as they ride out to protect the green isle from all manner of threats. When Finn and his companions gather around a fireside in the deep woods or meet in the feasting hall of a king after a long hunt, magic shimmers and shifts about them. Love and jealousy, loyalty and betrayal, transformation and trickery are never very far away. Live for the time of listening in Finn’s world; run with the great hunting dogs, meet the strange and powerful people of the Shee, travel to the land of the ever young, laugh at impossible delusions and weep as it all comes to its inevitable end.
