Fintan Patrick O'Carroll was an Irish composer. He was born in Wexford, Ireland on 31 July 1922. His family later moved to Waterford and this is where he spent the rest of his life. He died in July 1981 and was survived by his wife and seven children. He composed mostly church music for the Roman Catholic Church, and is most well known for his "Celtic Alleluia" which was later re-arranged by Christopher Walker.
