(Photo courtesty of Sportsfile) *Academic Year: It is 118 years since the College opened but it was closed for 10 years during the last century. Editorial School life proceeded smoothly in 2007-2008 and at first glance the items recorded for the year all seem very familiar. One could almost think one school year is much like the other: the events run their course and it is just the faces, names and personalities that differ. But not so this year in St. Mary’s; this was a year of many changes and a little more excitement than one could bear on the rugby field. It began with a complete renovation of the Senior school heating system, something that the students and teachers alike were very happy about when the cold days came. Other improvements included the addition of Laptops – trundled about on trollies to provide an ad hoc but very versatile computer room for use by the Junior School and Senior School students. Miraculous interactive white boards also arrived in a number of classrooms and proved to be a great success. A less technical but very practical addition came in the form of new changing rooms for the Junior School rugby players. All of these changes had only settled into our subconscious when the Senior Cup rugby campaign began. The team would take us all the way to the final in the RDS via enough nail-biting moments and elating successes to keep story tellers in business for years. Around this time too the leadership of the Senior School changed with the Principal Clive Byrne being seconded to the National Association of Principals and Deputy Principals. He was succeeded by his Deputy, Liam Naughton (the first past-pupil to become Principal) and Denis Murphy became Deputy Principal. The transition was smooth and students soon got used to the new faces behind old doors. Then, at the end of the year, the senior school bade farewell to three very long serving teachers; Richie Hughes, Michael Leonard and Sean McCarthy. Few can claim to have imparted as much knowledge of literature, language and indeed of life than these three men. Between them they gave over 100 years of service to St Mary’s – and in appreciation of their inestimable contribution to the school we have dedicated this annual to them. Your Editors were also keen that the College Annual should be a part of the defining changes taking place within the school – and so, for the first time the publication is printed in full colour. We have also delivered the volume to you, the reader, within the first-term of the following Academic Year – a time-frame which we think is desirable and, more importantly, maintainable. Another editorial decision taken was to unify the Staff Lists for the Junior and Senior Schools and the College Community as a whole. We have also included the Board Members of both Schools on these pages. There are so many links between the two Schools that it seems artificial to separate them and much more collegial to put them all together. So, here it is again, the St. Mary’s College Annual – a record of what happened in the school lives of nearly eight hundred students in 2007-2008. No doubt some matters of importance have been missed and/or some names have been incorrectly assigned and for that we apologise and will do our best to correct the situation in future years. More importantly though, there is a lot of St. Mary’s life documented here and our thanks to everyone who helped us to put names to faces, took photographs, ran events, chased down articles, wrote reports, typed lists, met with us and contributed and supported us in our effort. We extend a really sincere thank you to each and everyone who helped with this particular edition and if you have a story, or a photograph, or an idea for next year’s Annual – please do just get in touch! JOHN NISBET and LEONIE BLACKBURN Editors, 2008 The Arms of the College SYMBOLISM The Escutcheon is quartered. On the right base (as you observe it) there is the unchangeable five point silver star with golden rays, symbolic of fidelity to its purpose of shedding light and guidance in the pursuit of Him Who enlightens every man and Who is the “Bright and Morning Star”. (Apoc XXII. 16). The upper right bears the Cross, the emblem of trials and difficulties. It is in gold on a silver ground, symbolic of the precious outcome of trials well borne. These two symbols combine to produce the College motto: “Fidelitas in Arduis” (Fidelity in Difficulties). On the upper left quarter there is the Dove in silver, symbolic of the Holy Ghost, from which descend seven golden rays, the seven Gifts of the Holy Spirit, essential in the practice of “Fidelitas in Arduis”. The left base bears a red heart transfixed with a sword and encircled with golden roses. This is symbolic of the Holy Heart of Mary, suffering - the supreme purely human type of “Fidelitas in Arduis”. The golden roses symbolise the reward that comes from such fidelity.

  • “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in Partial Fulfillment Of
    “Whiskey in the Jar”: History and Transformation of a Classic Irish Song Masters Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Dana DeVlieger, B.A., M.A. Graduate Program in Music The Ohio State University 2016 Thesis Committee: Graeme M. Boone, Advisor Johanna Devaney Anna Gawboy Copyright by Dana Lauren DeVlieger 2016 Abstract “Whiskey in the Jar” is a traditional Irish song that is performed by musicians from many different musical genres. However, because there are influential recordings of the song performed in different styles, from folk to punk to metal, one begins to wonder what the role of the song’s Irish heritage is and whether or not it retains a sense of Irish identity in different iterations. The current project examines a corpus of 398 recordings of “Whiskey in the Jar” by artists from all over the world. By analyzing acoustic markers of Irishness, for example an Irish accent, as well as markers of other musical traditions, this study aims explores the different ways that the song has been performed and discusses the possible presence of an “Irish feel” on recordings that do not sound overtly Irish. ii Dedication Dedicated to my grandfather, Edward Blake, for instilling in our family a love of Irish music and a pride in our heritage iii Acknowledgments I would like to thank my advisor, Graeme Boone, for showing great and enthusiasm for this project and for offering advice and support throughout the process. I would also like to thank Johanna Devaney and Anna Gawboy for their valuable insight and ideas for future directions and ways to improve.

  • Interview Mit John Sheahan 2002 (Hans-Jürgen Fink, Hamburger Abendblatt)
    Interview mit John Sheahan 2002 (Hans-Jürgen Fink, Hamburger Abendblatt) ? Was für eine Situation war das damals in Irland, als die Dubliners in den 60er- Jahren ihre Karriere starteten? Welche Bedeutung hatte das Singen und Musizieren, und welche Marktlücke haben Sie damals erobert? ! 1962 – das war eine völlig andere Welt, sie hat sich viel langsamer bewegt – heute ist alles so hektisch und verrückt. Die Leute hatten mehr Zeit, Zeit zum Nachdenken. Und die irische Musik, das war die Welt der älteren Generation. Sie war nicht schrecklich populär unter jüngeren Leuten und hat diese Generation erst langsam wieder erobert. Bei mir war das etwas anders, ich habe Tin Whistle gelernt und dann Flöte; ich bin ja wie Barney MacKenna in einer musikalischen Familie aufgewachsen. Die Art der „Dubliners“, mit der traditionellen irischen Musik umzugehen, war neu und erfrischend, sie brachte eine ganz andere Vitalität hinein. Nur ein Beispiel: Die älteren Musiker, das waren meist Dance Bands, sie haben alle gesessen. Wir standen auf der Bühne, wir haben gespielt und gesungen, und wir haben uns bewegt. Die Leute schienen das zu mögen, und so haben wir uns unsere ganz eigene Nische im Markt geschaffen. Wir haben die Leute magisch zur irischen Musik hingezogen, der wir neues Leben eingehaucht hatten. ? Sie sind jetzt vierzig Jahre im Musikgeschäft – das ist einzigartig. Wie würden Sie denn Ihr Erfolgsrezept beschreiben? ! Vermutlich ist es unser Erfolgsrezept, dass wir nie irgendeins gehabt haben. Wir haben ja noch nicht mal Verträge untereinander. Wir spielen einfach, wir haben musikalisch viel anzubieten, jeder bringt seine Soli ein. Und noch etwas ist ganz wichtig: Wir hängen nicht zwischen unseren Tourneen zusammen.

  • Dublin City Honours Music Legend Luke Kelly
    22 January 2019 Dublin City Honours Music Legend Luke Kelly One of the most famous sons of Dublin, music legend and activist Luke Kelly will be honoured by his beloved Dublin City, friends and family in celebration of his life, with the unveiling of two individual Luke Kelly statues, one on either side of the city, on 30th January 2019 to mark the 35th anniversary of his death. Organised by Dublin City Council, the official unveiling of both sculptures will be undertaken by President of Ireland Michael D Higgins, in the presence of the Lord Mayor of Dublin, Nial Ring. From the streets of north Dublin to stages all over the world, Luke Kelly built his career on his ability to connect with the Irish people through story and song. Luke’s impact on the Dublin and Irish music scene revival of the 60s/70s is immense and inspiring a new generation since his death, his voice is as relevant today as it was 50 years ago. Speaking on behalf of organisers Dublin City Council, the Lord Mayor of Dublin, Nial Ring said “Luke’s presence is still felt on the streets of his birthplace Sheriff St and the pubs and haunts of the literati circles around Grafton St/Baggot St where he frequented. This is a unique celebration for a very unique man. To this day he inspires Irish and international artists through his words, songs and activism. It is only fitting that we celebrate the man, the music and his immeasurable impact on the Irish music scene and wider Irish culture.

The Stanislavski studio was so named as the type of training that Deirdre wanted to bring to Ireland. It was based on the theatrical theoh and techniques of the Russian Theatre practitioner, actor and director Konstantin Stanislavski (1863-1938), founder and theatre administrator ofthe Moscow Art Theatre and creator ofthe Stanislavski system of actor training, 'the most influential system of acting in the Western World'.2 The Stanislavski approach is a system of training, not a specific style of acting, that aims to provide the skills necessary for the actor to develop the inner life; the emotional and sensory life of the character.

It was back in February 2014 that I started thinking about a major cruise having retired the previous year and had the time to devote to a major trip. The decision was made a lot easier by the Cruising Association of Ireland (CAI) organising their summer cruise to the Derry Maritime Festival and the Clipper race. This cruise was planned for June so it made sense to join them as far as Derry then continue on. This would give an anticlockwise cruise (the recommended direction according to most of the pilot books) Tony Lynch was up for the cruise so full steam ahead in the preparations.
