Dick Gaughan CDs

 

Máire Ní Chathasaigh & Chris Newman

Irish Harp & Guitar

"The greatest Celtic harper of our age" (Live Ireland) and TG4 Irish Traditional Musician of the Year 2001 with "one of the UK's most staggering and influential acoustic guitarists" (fRoots) continue their extensive Spring tour - which has already brought them to Germany and the US in addtion to the UK - to promote their critically-acclaimed new CD FireWire. Of FireWire, the critics have said: “Dazzling virtuosity... The speed and complexity of Newman’s guitar-playing is to be marvelled at... exquisitely delivered songs... delightful” The Daily Telegraph "When it comes to virtuoso work on this ancient and delicate instrument, Maire Ni Chathasaigh is in a class of her own" The Guardian “An eclecticism and spirit of adventure that is quite thrilling...  Virtuoso playing... bewitching string fantasies and a wonderfully clear and expressive voice" The Times “FireWire takes one of the most effete instruments in traditional music by the scruff of the neck, bends it, stretches it and breathes a fire into its belly... Straddles traditions with grace and just a tincture of danger” The Irish Times "50 minutes of sparkling, seemingly effortless music which is of course the product of decades of hard work... Sheer class throughout" fRoots “Brilliant, innovative harping and guitar-playing of astonishing virtuosity and versatility” Songlines
