Traditional Irish - Arranged by Doug Sparling
Based on a recording by Na Casaidigh.
Played late at night, as a lullaby of sorts. Now go to sleep, little child...

Traditional Irish - Arranged by Doug Sparling
The last of my traditional Irish tunes for now...I learned both these tunes on my Kirk Lynch uilleann pipes when I had them - now I just play them on guitar best I can.
Buachaill On Eirne is…
From 2005 - Another one of my early pieces written on Fruity Loops, I believe written along side Morning at the Quay. As much as I detest re-recording things, I could probably do it justice now (for what it is, but I cringe at the step programming…
One of my "Celtic" tracks - "Tomorrow Shall Be My Dancing Day" is an old English carol and I think the melody is beautiful in its elegance and simplicity. I recorded this in the basement in 2005 or 2006. Penny whistle, bells, guitars and strings…
A song written for my dear old friend, Kirk Lynch, who I've known for almost 20 years. For those who don't know, Kirk and I live less than an hour apart, but I swear it's been five years since we've seen each other in person, which just ain't…

I remember Fruity Loops...used it a long time ago. Some cool stuff in that program. And I know how you feel about re-recording. Unless you are some kind of musical
savant...you pretty much have to.

Thanks for this utterly beautiful music
-and for your comments on some of my recently added stuff.
I'd love to take a lesson on your honest/clear guitfiddle technique.
Solo acoustic guitar recorded January 2nd 2009. Hope to do a longer more developed version at some point ,but for now just a short version to learn more about using new DAW software.
One from a year ago or so. Never was happy with the recording quality, but never got around to re recording it. My attempt at a kind of late 70's Phil Keaggy thing
Yo-Yo Ma uploaded this cello part on indabamusic and invited others to create with it. I thought it was a cool idea. I had help with this christmas song from Matthiew, a wandering Parisian trumpet player.
There was a director who was so happy to show off his lead singer to the playwrite... she was young and beautiful and a talented singer... when he finally got to present her to the playwrite... the playwrite nodded, and smiled.. he told the director…
Comments on dougsparling's stuff
In this and in some others tracks we hear en intresting influence by celtic and pastorale-Middle-Ages music,very sweet,very nice
Beautiful indeed; thanks.
Thanks for your recent comments, Doug. (I'm going to hang and check out ye great sounds here.)
Beautiful sound mate this is great, love it.
Had to have another listen- thanks again man!
Nearly favourited this again - sooo dreamy! Wonderful stuff.
Thank you, it's lovely - will go look. Cheers Bethan
Beautiful it is, Doug, and really well played. Do you know the name of the carol? I haven't heard it before.
This is E-X-T-R-A Cool! Love it Doug. I hope you can find the other mix.
I loved this at 3 seconds. Just like fresh air.
Lovely! Don't think I've heard that tune before
Enchanting. Classic Sparling.
Nice one man! Never heard this one of yours
...man- tasteful stuff here, Doug. Thanks much for the encouraging words on 'For Joy.'

Your FL demos are far better than mine ever were. Kudos, loving the orchestral feel.
Music like this always unwinds my mind...always picture flying over lush green mountains...with naked Irish ladies on them.. heh jk.
Inspires me to pick up the whistle again. Great!

I refuse to wear a tutu, but I like this song nonetheless. I'll leave the sparkly shoes to Bethan. ER
