A TRALEE woman has composed a song paying homage to the original Rose of Tralee song, just in time for the festival.
Dr Sarah O’Halloran is a composer who currently lives in the Washington, D.C. area. ‘Like A Rose of Tralee’ pays homage to the beloved 19th century song re-imagining its story from the perspective of the rose herself.
