The Carolan Albums

The Carolan Albums Máire Ní Chathasaigh & Chris Newman During the summer of 1991, Old Bridge Music released 'The Carolan Album' on cassette only. This recording contained twelve of the best-known compositions of the celebrated blind Irish harper and composer Turlough O'Carolan. 1994 saw twelve more tracks with 'The Carolan Album Volume 2'. These two recordings are now available as one album - hence the plural in the title! 'The Carolan Albums' is a 66-minute CD containing all 24 tracks from the two cassette releases - truly the definitive recordings of these much-loved melodies, arranged with meticulous attention to detail for Irish harp and acoustic guitar by Máire Ní Chathasaigh and Chris Newman. Price: £12.50 (You can pay in any currency: more info)
