This stands beside any piece of music as a masterpiece.

[@gregobrien4384]

This surpasses music and is interwoven in the peoples of Ireland and anybody of Irish descent. Absolutely vital that it's played and remembered by all Celts.

I first heard The Brendan Voyage on NPR and immediately fell in love with it. Since then, I have been learning as much as possible about the story behind it. Fascinating! And Liam O’Flynn’s artistry is amazing. He was one of a kind.

The book about the recreated voyage, by Tim Severin, is an interesting read.

I first heard of the Ateneul Roman when I first went to Bucharest on 2015.

[@gregobrien4384]

This is something for all Irish people to be proud of,absolutely fantastic piece of uplifting music.

It always brings up in my mind, the easy sailing of a broad reach, wind astern, full sail, keel and bow gurgle of easy running

I use the term virtuoso seldomly but here we had a virtuoso of the Irish Uilleann pipes.

Such a talent, a saw him in live out in the séamus Ennis centre in the Naul many years ago. I'll cherish it. Wonderful appreciation from the audience.
