Seo taifead eisiach ó Seán Ó Riada - Mo Sheanathair de Barry Douglas ag seinnt 'Romeo & Juliet' (Prokofiev). An additional clip from Seán Ó Riada - Mo Sheanathair of Barry Douglas playing the famous 'Romeo & Juliet' (Prokofiev). Beidh Seán Ó Riada – cumadóir agus pearsa cultúir is ceannasaí na hÉireann sa 20ú haois - ar bhur scáileáin ar Lá Fhéile Stiofáin ar TG4. Leathchéad bliain i ndiaidh a bháis i nDeireadh Fómhair na bliana 1971, tá sé socraithe ag a ghariníon, an ceoltóir agus an craoltóir, Doireann Ní Ghlacáin, tuilleadh a fháil amach faoin bpearsa aitheanta seo a dheighleann daoine. De réir mar a bheidh sí ag fiosrú a cuid oidhreachta, trí shaol agus ré a seanathar a leagan amach, tabharfar saol Uí Riada chun fíre trí aitheantas tochtmhar a thabhairt d’fhathach seo shaol cultúir na hÉireann. We trace Ó Riada’s steps from his college days in UCC to the jazz bars of Paris and back to the Gaeltacht of West Cork and Kerry. We explore his prolific compositional work, his broadcasting, influences and anecdotes and we gain an understanding into what really caused his early demise at just 40 years of age. The female voice is very much to the fore in this documentary, and we bear witness to an alternative view of Ó Riada’s legacy, in particular from the perspective of his wife Ruth Ní Riada who also died tragically, just 6 years after Ó Riada.
