Ballad of the Foxhunter

I first heard this song many years ago, at a Cherish the Ladies concert, with Aoife Clancy singing lead, and was mesmerized by the brilliant blending of this fantastic old poem (Yeats) and this fantastic old slipjig. I've always wanted to do a tribute, and over winter break, actually had some time to really tackle it - and it requires tackling. My hat's off to the Joanie Madden and the Ladies for making it work so beautifully.
