The first tune here is another from Marcus Hernon’s album of compositions. Marcus’ music has been part of my life for as long as I can remember and he, along with Johnny Connolly, used to play regularly in my village of Roundstone. Both were very encouraging and always insisted I join them for a tune. The second tune is a composition by Noreen O’Sullivan and the title track of her recent tin whistle album. Noreen was my first music teacher beginning when I was in primary school and I’m not sure I would be playing today if it wasn’t for her. She has a lovely approach to teaching and her whistle playing is second to none.

Absolutely sensational - love the generally low-end tones and planxty-esque set up, but most of all the incredible energy of it! Wish more instrumental trad was like this, love the fact that it's recorded live too. Prangman
