Probably the two 'Master' harp players doing the rounds today, on one first duet album.
Don't expect too many popular toe-tappers, these folks are serious musical professionals who select their work carefully. What you do get is a 'master-class' in the playing of and the music of the harps of both Scotland & Ireland.
The actual national instrument of both countries - so this is well worth savouring, it's your heritage!
