Paperback. Condition: Good. Second Edition. "To audiences both at home and throughout the world, traditional music is arguably the finest, most varied and best-loved manifestation of Irish culture. This superb book records one of the most interesting aspects of this art - that of the solo fiddlers of Tyrone and Donegal. Allen Fe…ldman's text captures the atmosphere and excitement of the performances and gives a lucid, fascinating account of the historical and social background of the subject. Eamonn O'Doherty's photographs and drawings record with a superb visual eloquence not only the fiddlers themselves, but the lives they lead and the landscape in which they live. Together they have made a fitting tribute to one of Ireland's most beautiful and fragile of treasures." - back cover.
