Louis Stewart – She Moved Through the Fair.
Parts of She Moved Through the Fair were first first collected by Herbert Hughes in Donegal in early 1900s. Herbert Hughes was a composer, music critic and collector and he included She Moved through the fair in Hughes Irish Country songs in 1909. It’s played here by local musician, the late great Louis Stewart from Greenhills.
