about

Eibhlís Ní Ríordáin (voice, early Irish harp)
Patricia Connery (Irish uilleann pipes).
This beautiful album contains: sean-nós songs from the Déise area in the south east of Ireland (including An Buachaillín Bán, An Páistín Fionn, Pilib Séimh Ó Fathaigh and many more); the harp song Fanny Power by Turlough Carolan (1670-1738), performed, for the first time in over 200 years, as Carolan himself would have performed it, i.e., Eibhlís accompanies her own singing of it on the early Irish harp or 'cláirseach'; traditional songs in the English language such as The Shores of Lough Bran and The Seaside (a Child ballad collected near Cappoquin on the banks of the Blackwater river in 1906); and three traditional Irish airs on the Uilleann pipes played by Patricia Connery.
Most of the tracks were recorded in St Peter's Church in Drogheda, a church with wonderful acoustics.
The beautiful CD cover painting is by Eibhlís's sister, artist Maria Dowling (www.mariadowling.net). Cover and booklet design is by Eibhlís.
