Interview with Manchester flute player Michael Walsh. Here’s bit of what we talk sbout:
" ‘England gave me everything I ever wanted.’ " The Quarehawk. Big Tom, Margo, the Manchester scene; Irish, English, and in-between. A love of England and making a whole out of two halves. Grieving, and crafting an album. Fathers, sons, boys, men. Asturias, the flute and identifying as one thing or another. Getting Kepa Junkera to play on your album. And so much more. Brilliant stuff.
The tunes:
Quarehawk (from Michael’s album of the same name)
The Boys of Bluehill and the Stockport Hornpipe
The Visitor (from Quarehawk)
The Shores of Loch Bran
Muñeira de Rengos
Paddy’s Return and the Trip to Athlone
