History comes alive through the songs and poems of Ireland’s modern revolutionary period (1887- 1926)
The Indignant Muse is a ten part radio series adapted from the landmark book of the same name published by Lilliput Press. Join Terry Moylan as he brings listeners on a journey through an alternative musical history, pockmarked by battle and rebellion. This Near FM produced radio series follows the same chronological order as the book as we select some of the best song and verse from each period. Joining Terry are An Góilín singers adding colourful and authentic interpretations of the songs and poems featured.
