A great podcast. A must listen for all musicians, beginner or advanced, and appreciators of Irish music. Thank you Tara!
I’m a classically trained player who recently switched to Irish fiddle and am so curious to learn all the ins and outs of Irish music. The tradition of it is so amazing! That figure of 10,000 tunes played in Irish sessions—wow. What a rich tradition.
Refreshing, honest and I am hooked!
