ABOUT THE ALBUM
The sound of the accordion is an underexploited resource in classical music; it is heard even less frequently in combination with other instruments. This recital of music by Irish composers for cello and accordion - from the nimble folk idiom of Turlough Carolan to the passionate Romanticism of more recent men and women - demonstrates just how effectively these colours blend together. And it is not just the medium which is unusual: much of this music is as good as unknown.
