    This recording brings together two of Ireland’s foremost proponents of each instrument, Peter Carberry on accordion from Co. Longford and Padraig McGovern from Co. Leitrim on uilleann pipes. ~

    Much research was carried out for this project and the emphasis is on music from the midlands region while there are a few rambles to different parts of the country for good measure. Piping tunes predominate, many learned from old recordings of local masters and some from old music manuscripts and even a few new compositions appear. For this production Peter and Padraig have chosen to play on lower pitched instruments inthe key of B. Peter had his bass retuned to emulate the chords of the pipes’ regulators with the resulting innovative combination producing a hive of harmonies.
