By Strangford Water - downloadable
This is my first solo album featuring myself alone with my own music almost entirely.
It is mostly solo harp with just 2 tracks overdubbed with myself! You will recognise some old favorites, but here they are in solo version.
Bright New Morning, and Viking and Kyrie from my ‘Lion of Ireland’ suite and ‘Whelan’s and Janet’s Jigs’ will be familiar already as Harp Orchestra pieces, but here they are as concert solos.

The files are downloadable as .mp3 high quality 320mps and as lossless .flac files, these are larger approx 25mb
