Bríd O'Donohue, Traditional Irish Tin Whistle & Flute

Featured Music

Tobar an Dúchais

The music on the CD was selected for it's associations with the people Bríd learned from, in that sense it's a very personal recording, here she plays the tunes learned when growing up. It is often said Irish traditional music is the music of people and places. If ever there was a CD that reflected that, this is the one.
