Tomas An Buile strolled down Dublin’s Exchequer Street, softly singing to himself (“Down by the Salley Gardens….”) to his favourite establishment, the Stag’s Head Pub. His pals were all there, all singing and laughing in their Guinness and their whiskey. They sang of Nature, of faeries and goblins, of lost loves and lost ages. For voice and piano, these seven songs, set to the poetry of Yeats and Stephens, tell the story of this fanciful evening at the Stag’s Head.
