It's no wonder that there is a growth in popularity of harp music when you have players like this - weaving traditional magic.
Folks have been writing tunes and playing the harp for centuries (13th?) and we think that's why it sometimes comes across as too scholarly. But it's time to wake up folks. There are some quite excellent players out in the world today who are dragging the instrument right into this century and are not afraid to do new things and create new sounds. Here's one to get you started!!
1) The Two William Davises
2) Maurice O'Connor
3) Battle of Aughrim
4) Madam Maxwell - Courtenay's Favourite
5) Taimse in chodladh
6) Henry MacDermott Roe
7) Carolan's Concerto
8) Corelli
9) Carolan's Farewell to Music
10) The Foggy Dew
11) Tiarna Mhuigheo
12) Planxty Finn
13) Mr. O'Connor & Jig
14) Molly McAlpine
15) Poll Ha'penny - Willie Clancy's Poll Ha'penny
