Subject: Obit: Ivor Browne Irish psychiatrist-musician From: Felipa Date: 28 Jan 24 - 05:10 PM This article https://www.rte.ie/news/dublin/2024/0124/1428411-ivor-browne/ tells of "one of Ireland's best known psychiatrists, Professor Ivor Browne" and also mentions that Dr Browne was "a talented musician." His family notice in the Irish times https://notices.irishtimes.com/death/browne-ivor/61173821 also refers to the late doctor as "a talented musican." Dr Browne played trumpet, but he was very interested in traditional music as well as jazz. He was a co-founder of Claddagh Records which produced recordings of the Chieftains, and many other folk and traditional musicians and singers https://claddaghrecords.com/collections/irish-traditional https://www.independent.ie/irish-news/obituary-ivor-browne-acclaimed-psychiatrist-who-was-a-mental-health-pioneer-and-remained-defiant-when-censured-over-fr-michael-cleary-scandal/a1953581448.html |

Subject: RE: Obit: Ivor Browne -Irish psych-musician(1929-2024) From: Felipa Date: 30 Jan 24 - 07:36 PM yes, I read that Ronan played tin whistle at his father's funeral. I remember Rónan used to present a traditional music programme on the radio. And here is a video from RTE television) of Rónan playing pipes along with his sister Tiarna playing fiddle https://www.rte.ie/archives/2022/0218/1281714-tiarna-and-ronan-browne/ Rónan composed the score for a film about his dad Meetings With Ivor and has composed and/or played music for other films, tv programmes and stage plays |

Subject: RE: Obit: Ivor Browne -Irish psych-musician(1929-2024) From: GUEST,Peter Laban Date: 04 Feb 24 - 07:02 AM There is probably a lot more to be said about the man, both as a psychiatrist and his contributions to the field of traditional music, but that's probably not for me to do. There was a fine documentary on RTE some years ago, 'Meeting with Ivor'. There's a website for it, if I recall correctly Here are a few bits: A Rollong wave special: When Séamus Ennis met Ivor Browne : an unlikely friendship And a piece by Mirian O Callahan that I caught on the rzdio when it first went out, both the man himself and Ronan appearing: Prof. Ivor Browne |
