FIRST HEARING:
A classic Irish fiddle & flute combination.
The playing is so good you are almost obliged to listen to it, and the accompanying players are nicely set back to allow the leaders to stand out.
It all seems so easy, effortless and yet you know that you are listening to years of skill and countless hours of playing to reach this level of perfection.
