Candlelit Tales Irish Mythology Podcast
270 episodes - English - Latest episode: 4 days ago - ★★★★★ - 99 ratingsWe are a group of storytellers, performers, and musicians. We tell Irish myths to a live audience with live music.
Candlelit Tales was founded by brother-sister storytelling duo Aron and Sorcha Hegarty. Driven by a passion for Irish mythology, we started retelling the stories to a near-empty room upstairs in a Dublin pub one rainy evening in November. The next week, the room was a lot less empty, and we were joined by musician Ru O’Sé. By the fourth week, the room was full, and so was the hall outside. We realised that when we share our passion, it becomes contagious. And we’ve been telling stories and playing music from that day to this.
Since then, over the past five years of telling stories in the capital of this nation of storytellers, we have developed and refined our uniquely expressive, naturalistic and modern style. Live music is the heartbeat of all our performances, and a live original music score composed by a team of talented musicians drives the rhythm of the stories

Episode 38.5 - Tailc Son Of Treon - Post Show Chat
May 12, 2020 10:00 - 1 hour - 131 MBThis story is a bit mad and the main thing we will talk about is probably how we did it/ how we do the music for the podcasts in general. Saying that I think it will be messy if we have four voices talking about the topics on this story. So I suggest that I to Sorcha for a half hour first on a couple of the following ideas, and then at half one Ru and Oisin come in to offer the musical perspective: Themes in this story: After a quick re-cap of this story we talk about the following: Note...
