Make Me An Island vs Fire Draw Near
This extended episode starts with a visit to Armenia to hear the singular sound that Djivan Gaspryan achieves on the duduk. It's wind-based instruments all the way as Ian Lynch of Lankum joins Donal to discuss the history of piping and singing in Ireland after a couple blasts of tin-whistle magic from Paddy Moloney and Sean Potts. Ian's Fire Draw Near radio show on DDR is essential listening. Two worlds collide. https://listen.dublindigitalradio.com/resident?id=5de90fcdd06fc4001420e176 (picture: Malcolm McGettigan)
