More than 20 recordings since 1960 are identified 26 27 in https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Irish_Rover#Cultural_impact. There has been, 28 29 30 despite this high profile, little exploration of the song’s significance in Irish history. In 31 32 particular, its unique status as a piece of financial reporting has attracted no 33 34 attention. This paper is intended to open up an understanding of the song’s 35 36 contribution and stimulate a wider exploration of the links between culture and 37 38 39 financial reporting. 40 41 42 There are a number of different texts available for Irish Rover (IR) and the version 43 44 above is based on a very full one, as performed by The Dubliners and the Pogues at 45 46 a high0profile concert in 1912, to be found on 47 48 49 https://www.youtube.com/watch3v4au30c96MIPg 50 51 52 This includes the controversial verses 9 and 10 that are normally omitted. It also 53 54 employs some readings which may be challenged. These editing decisions will be 55 56 discussed below. 57 58 59 60 4 Page 5 of 8 Accounting, Auditing & Accountability Journal 1 2 3 IR is normally received as the narrative of an Irish commercial voyage in the early 4 5 19thc. The ship and the crew are described in some detail, and the song ends with 6 7 the failure of the trip, a train of events comparable with e.g. Greenland Whale 8 9 1 2 10 Fisheries and The Good Ship Calabar . 7hat is distinctive in its form and content 11 12 are the choice of detail, and the attention paid to the governance, and to the material 13 14 and personal resources used in the shipping project. IR is, I will argue, a very early 15 16 financial report. The term 8report* is chosen advisedly. The song is not a financial 17 18 For Peer Review 19 statement 0 there are no monetary values invoked 9 but it is the account of an 20 21 economic project. 22 23 24 IR begins with a date 984th of July, 110 *0 and with a clear mission statement0 25 26 8,transporting- a cargo of bricks/For the Grand City Hall in New York*. 1 July might 27 28 29 have been e)pected as a start date ,with a 30 June year0end- but sea conditions 30 31 even at that time of year may have delayed departure, or pressure on harbour 32 33 resources in Cork may also be implicated. The redesign of City Hall in New York was 34 35 a project begun in 1102 but delayed by spending cuts and arguments between the 36 37 developer and the city council, as well as an outbreak of yellow fever among the site 38 39 40 staff ,http://www.nyc.gov/html/dcas/html/about/man_cityhall.shtml- The building was 41 42 completed only in 1111. Hence the 110 voyage was potentially a timely delivery of 43 44 materials. 45 46 47 The song immediately identifies the non0current asset, the ship IR itself. Its language 48 49 50 is more emotionally coloured than that of a modern financial report ,8a wonderful 51 52 1 He capsiAed the boat and we lost five men 53 And we did not catch the whale, brave boys, we did not catch the whale 54 ,trad- 55 2 No more ICll be a sail0i0ar or sail the raging main 56 And the ne)t time I go to Portadown, ICll go by the bloody train ,trad- 57 58 59 60 5 Accounting, Auditing & Accountability Journal Page 6 of 8 1 2 3 craft*- but gives enough detail to identify the ship and suggest that it had already 4 5 been sailed on a challenging route like the Atlantic crossing. ,This may be a hint at 6 7 the outcome of the trip-.

  • Introduction to Global Music the Center for European
    Introduction to Global Music The Center for European Studies (CES) and other Area Studies Centers at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill are collaborating with the student-run radio station WXYC in the production of the Global Music Show. This monthly hour-long program features music from a particular area of the world combined with commentary by guest scholars, who discuss the music played in the context of the culture and history of the region that produced it. To support cultural learning, CES has created student listening guides, pre- and post-listening discussion questions, and resource links for each of their Global Music programs. The programs run about one hour, and so listening and discussion would work well for block schedule classes. If your class runs the traditional hour length, you can have the class listen over two periods, and then discuss. Alternatively, you can assign the listening for homework, and hold the discussion during class time. Music can teach us much about a culture that never appears in a textbook. Use these programs and teaching resources to connect your students with European cultures in a dynamic, new way. Encourage students to continue their exploration of Europe through music. Irish Stew Professor Nicholas Allen and Reece McGowen Pre-Listening Questions Ask students to think about these questions before you listen to the program. Write their answers on the board. 1. You’re going to hear some Irish music. Make some predictions. What instruments do you expect to hear? What kind of songs will you be listening to? What will the songs be about? 2.

  • “Fascinating Facts” August 2018
    Daily Sparkle CD - A Review of Famous Songs of the Past “Fascinating Facts” August 2018 Track 1 On Top of Old Smokey On Top of Old Smoky is a traditional folk song and a well-known ballad of the United States. Old Smoky may be a high mountain somewhere in the Ozarks or the central Appalachians, as the tune bears the stylistic hallmarks of the Scottish and Irish people who settled the region. Mitchell "Mitch" Miller (July 4, 1911 – July 31, 2010) was prominent in the American music industry. Miller was involved in almost all aspects of the industry, working as a musician, singer, conductor, record producer and record company executive. Miller was one of the most influential people in American popular music during the 1950s and early 1960s, both as the head of A&R at Columbia Records and as a best-selling recording artist with an NBC television series, Sing Along with Mitch. Track 2 Island In The Sun A song comprised of traditional Jamaican music. Belafonte starred in a film of the same name in 1957. Harry Belafonte born Harold George "Harry" Belafonte, Jr. (born March 1, 1927) is an American singer, songwriter, actor and social activist. He was dubbed the "King of Calypso" for popularizing the Caribbean musical style with an international audience in the 1950s. Belafonte is perhaps best known for singing The Banana Boat Song, with its signature lyric "Day-O". Throughout his career he has been an advocate for civil rights and humanitarian causes and was a vocal critic of the policies of the George W.

    “In the beginning” A Celebration of One Hundred Years of Dolphin R.F.C. 2002 - 2003 Compiled, and written by Ger Hodkinson. Layout by Kieran Dwyer. “In the beginning” A Celebration of One Hundred Years of Dolphin R.F.C. 2002 - 2003 © 2002 Dolphin Rugby Football Club 1st Edition Printed in Cork, Ireland by Watermans Printers Acknowledgments With the Centenary season fast approaching I was approached by Paddy Clery, Club President 2001/2002, to work on the club history. “Sure you have a lot of it done already”, referring to a few paragraphs I had done for the Club Newsletter. What a “hospital pass” it turned out to be. Where do you start on such a project, the club records were destroyed in a fire many years ago. Jerry Healy started on the Club History a few years ago, with the aid of our oldest member Sidney Mahony. He put together the short history which was contained in club programmes and membership cards over the past few years. Sidney has been very helpful; he can remember the mid 1920’s as if it were only yesterday. In recognition of this, the title of this book is the same - “In the beginning”. A Club is only as strong, interesting and colourful as it’s members. During my research I found many fascinating stories about “The People of Dolphin”. What I hope is that I have been able to capture these stories and do the many characters justice. This book could not be written without the assistance of many people, but where does one start.
