==Other recordings== ''May We Never Have To Say Goodbye'', released by the [[Tara Music label]], is a collaboration between Davey, the RTÉ National Symphony Orchestra and a number of famous artists. The album takes its name from the anthem specially composed for the Opening Ceremony of the [[Special Olympics|Special Olympics World Summer Games]] in Croke Park, June 2003, and performed by Rita Connolly, [[Ronan Tynan]] and six Dublin choirs. It is presented along with a range of music from Davey's suite, featuring traditional soloists, singers, choir, pipe band, and orchestra, together with percussion. This release also includes previously unrecorded pieces from ''The Pilgrim'', along with (among others): "Fill to me the Parting Glass" (from the film score of ''[[Waking Ned]]''), and "Music of the Spheres", a magical piece from the [[Royal Shakespeare Company]] production of ''[[Pericles, Prince of Tyre|Pericles]]''. ''Beal Tuinne – Live at St. James' church Dingle'' (TARA4022) is a collection of songs composed by Davey with lyrics based on the poems of the late Kerry Poet Caoimhín Ó Cinnéide. Davey is joined on this recording by his wife Rita Connolly and Dingle-based musicians: [[Séamus Begley]], Eilís Kennedy, Lawrence Courtney, Eoin Ó Beaglaoí, Daithí Ó Sé and Jim Murray. ''Voices from the Merry Cemetery'' (TARA4023) is a suite of songs again composed by Davey but this time based on grave inscriptions from the cemetery—known as the Merry Cemetery—of the village of [[Săpânța]] on [[Romania]]'s border with [[Ukraine]]. For this live recording, Davey has again teamed up with Connolly (vocals) and O'Flynn (uilleann pipes), as well as the Romanian Men's Choir of the Theology Faculty, [[Sibiu]], directed by Pr. Dr. Sorin Dobre and sections from the Romanian State Philharmonia, conducted by David Brophy.
