Return From Fingal

Post by elbogo »

Anyone have a copy of the RTÉ CD, Seamus Ennis, Return from Fingal?

Meaning, if so, could I entice them into burning me a copy?

This is the one that includes Seamus singing Éamonn A' Chnoic and then playing it, that I really want.

Aw, come on. Surely you could shell out a few bucks and just buy it. Seamus Ennis hardly makes any money at all out of this whole "semi-professional" piping gig. He could probably use a bit of extra cash.

Maybe you could pick up a copy from him next time he's on tour? There's a chance he might be opening for John Tesh and Yanni later this year.

Tell us something.: I am interested in the uilleann pipes and their typical -and broader- use. I have been composing and arranging for the instrument lately. I enjoy unusual harmonic combinations on the pipes. I use the pipes to play music of other cultures.

Really? Yanni and Tesh have kicked the bucket too? Man, talk about a Supergroup in Heaven!

Sport, the CD is not available, can't be bought anywhere. RTE may reissue it, but no one knows when. If I could buy it, I'd have it now.

So there!

It's a great Cd that one. Used to have it but gave it to a reed maker as part payment on a mighty fine reed.(Allan Moller was the chap)
Perhaps he will copy it for you. He has a web site and contact details are on it. (see Uillann Pipes Doctor)

Hey, Ben, do you wear those petticoats when you play your pipes? I bet it helps you relax more, eh?
