Kathleen Loughnane - Harping On

(2002)

A wonderful, enthusiastic airing of Irish harp music * not just the harp as solo instrument, but the harp as folk instrument playing with fiddles, accordion, concertina, guitar, whistles and pipes. An album of tremendous power and gaiety.

Another album from the Tipperary harpist who now lives in Galway. Kathleen is a member of the group Dordán and is one of the most accomplished players in the country.

It’s a very pleasant, well-selected collection of tunes, with musical assistance from Seamus Begley, Mary Bergin, Alec Finn, Jacqueline McCarthy, Sean Ryan and others.
