By the way, in lieu of ***, I spend most evenings playing endless (as in many, many) Irish tunes with a daughter - violin/recorder and sometimes another on guitar. While we may not do justice to the music, we certainly bring out the sentiment in the names. Like, "An phis fliuch" sounds like an phis fliuch when we play it. Also "The Cumann Na mBan are dead and gone".

Anyhow, I have a hankering to hear some good fiddle recordings. A McGarr-something sister from Ontario was over here recently and I enjoyed her Cape Breton renditions. And her dancing. And her...shoulder-rest?

I've been looking in Elderly catalog at Natalie MacMaster "Live",
Liz Carroll "Lake Effect" and Celtic Fiddle Festival "Rendezvous" with Kevin Burke, Jimmy Cunningham and Christiane Lemaitre.

These any good? I admire breakneck speed, but I like some slow sweetness too, in lieu of *** .
