    www.culturevannin.im www.manxmusic.com KIAULL MANNINAGH JIU Mee Houney 2017 November manx music today Everyone was ‘Maynrey’ at the 2017 Bree workshop weekend! Last weekend, students from different corners of the Island came together at Douglas Youth Arts Centre for the 11th annual Big Bree Workshop Weekend. Under the tuition of Caitlin Bennett, Caroline Helps, Cairistiona Dougherty, Cinzia Yates, Greg Joughin and Chloe Woolley, the talented youngsters enjoyed an intensive two days getting creative with Manx culture, including an impromptu outdoor ceili! The workshops had a Hop tu naa theme this year, and culminated in a showcase concert on the Sunday afternoon. Pharrell Williams (or should it be Quilliams?!) would’ve be very impressed by the opening number of the concert - led by top Mollag, Greg Joughin, all of the Bree students and tutors performed hit song, Happy... but in Manx! With lots of happy clapping and vocal harmonies, Maynrey got the audience in the mood for a ‘fabulous’ (quote from one of the dads) concert! The folk group took to the stage next, with Manx trad tune, “Hie Mee Stiagh” and they were followed by the Bree Singers with “She Lhong Honnick Mee”. Next up was the fiddle group, Ny Fiddleryn, who performed two pieces from the Fiddyl book - dance tune “Eunyssagh Vona”, followed by Katie Lawrence’s beautiful piece “Tune for Grandad” which left a few people teary-eyed in the audience. A group of singers then came on with “Jinny the Witch” (sung to a new tune composed by Caz Dougherty) & “Hop tu naa” in Manx Gaelic.

    STEPHEN MILLER THE MOLLAG BAND We are the Mollag Band So glorious and so grand Yo-Hi, Yo-Hi, Yo-Hi, Yo-Hi, Yo-Hi We are the Mollag Band We’re likely come from say We haven’t had our “tay” Yo-Hi, Yo-Hi, Yo-Hi, Yo-Hi, Yo-Hi We are the Mollag Band L CHIOLLAGH BOOKS FOR CULTURE VANNIN 2018 INTRODUCTION 1 “The old days were the days of the candles, the fairies, the ghosts, the Mollag bands, and the White Boys.” This was T.H. Corkhill speaking in 1924, at a Manx Tea and Concert organised by the Waterloo Road Wesleyan Church in Ramsey. [“Manx Tea & Concert,” Ramsey Courier 4 April 1924, 5e.] Here the interest is with the Mollag Band, the anarchic opposite to the White Boys. Named after the mollag that they carried, a float for a fishing net made from a dogskin, they are best documented for Castletown, less so for Ramsey, and with some evidence for Peel. Drawn together here is the source material for them drawn from print [p], newspapers [n], the Manx Museum Folk-Life Survey [fls], and the Mona Dougas Papers [md]. This is followed by the song texts [s] along with the tune known to date [t] together with a drawing made by Mona Douglas of the costume worn [c]. To stand as an introduction, reproduced here is an article on the Mollag Band published first in Kiaull Jiu Manninagh for December 2012 and later as Manx Notes 146 (2013). Since then the Manx newspapers have been digitised and material has come to light that was not available then.

  • Mona Douglas Helg Yn Dreean
    MONA DOUGLAS HELG YN DREEAN CHIOLLAGH BOOKS 2018 MONA DOUGLAS HELG YN DREEAN 1 In October 1933, the St Aubyn School of Dancing together with the Manx Amateur Operatic and Dramatic Society presented two plays by Mona Douglas, “Kebeg” and “The Widow’s House,” at Sulby in Lezayre. As part of the evening there was a display of Manx folk dances, eight in number, one of which was Hunt the Wren. As the Mona’s Herald reported, Douglas had “made research of some of the dances.” Amongst her personal papers now in the mnhl, there is a notebook containing her description and notes on her “research” (ie, collecting) of folk dances in the Island, one of which is Hunt the Wren, but under the Manx title of Helg yn Dreean. It was collected from John James Kelly of Baldrine, Lonan, a key informant for Douglas. The notebook is undated but clear that it was in or before 1933 for it to have been displayed at Sulby. In 1935, it was danced in Liverpool when a party travelled from the Island to give a demonstration of Manx folk dances to the Mersey and Deeside Branch of the English Folk Dance and Song Society In an article from 1937, published in the Journal of the English Folk Dance and Song Society, there is the first published description of the dance itself, and a letter from Douglas later in 1959 has a brief passing mention to it. A published notation for the dance first appears in 1953, as part of Seven Manx Folk Dances, Set II.
