Music from the Hearth: Cathal McConnell & Richard Hughes Cathal McConnell, from Fermanagh, Northern Ireland, and a founding member of the internationally acclaimed ensemble, The Boys of the Lough, is joined in this tour by the masterful Irish-American musician and singer, Richard Hughes. Cathal (Irish flute, whistles, and vocals) has enthralled audiences in the world over with his virtuoso instrumental mastery and his soulful renditions of songs from the traditional Irish repertoire. Richard (Irish flute, whistles, guitar, and vocals) is particularly noteworthy for his brilliant performances at the Mariposa, Philadelphia, and Eisteddfod Folk Festivals during the traditional music boom of the 60's and early 70's. This collaboration of Cathal and Richard represents an intimate and entertaining evening of the traditional music and song of Ireland that warms the heart, refreshes the soul, and brings audiences closer to the origins of traditional music than ever before. [Cathal is] the musical source cited by many Celtic musicians. --Dirty Linen Richard brings the intimacy of the hearth to the concert stage. --Howard Glasser, SMU Eisteddfod AVAILABLE SEPTEMBER 2000 Cathal McConnell's Long Expected Solo Album! Cathal McConnell needs no introduction to lovers of Irish music. As a founding member of The Boys of the Lough, he has been sharing his music with audiences around the world for over thirty years. Born in Bellinalech, Co. Fermanagh in 1944, Cathal is one of the last great originals on the Irish music scene—a true character in every sense of the word. In conceiving this album, we have tried to present Cathal in all his musical complexity. The CD ranges in mood from serious to zany, and in style from purely traditional to experimental. We hope you enjoy the album. —The Producers Available through your favorite online and local retailers from Compass Records
