320 kbps



Riches of Clare (Clare Arts Office - 2009)

Recordings from the 2009 Riches of Clare free lunchtime concerts, put together for a free CD which was handed out at the Riches of Clare concerts, and in libraries throughout County Clare earlier this year. It features brilliant playing, predominantly from Clare musicians, as well as a number of musicians from further afield. Hopefully recordings from the equally brilliant 2010 series will be available next year.

  6. I've been downloading the contents of this blog for awhile now and never even dropped a wee note of thanx... How bloody rude of mine.

    So here you have it DR, and keep them coming!

    Aw'rabest,

  8. DR,
    in the list of performers and tunes from "The Riches of Clare" you missed a track. Track 6 is a combo of flute, fiddle, and harp. The second tune is "Mayor Harrison's Fedora". Who are the players, and what are the other two tunes?

    And thanks for the terrific resource.

  9. OK, my mistake. I see that the track is there. It just got mis-labeled as jigs instead of reels. Sorry for the confusion. Staying up too late playing tunes.

    And again, thanks for the great site.
