Book Synopsis Flowing Tides by : Gearóid Ó hAllmhuráin
Book excerpt: Whether carried by emigrants and exiles, or distributed by commercial networks, Irish traditional music is one of the most popular World Music genres. Clare, at the western edge of Europe on Ireland's Atlantic seaboard, enjoys unrivaled status as a Home of the Music, a magnet for tourists and aficionados eager to enjoy the authentic sounds of Ireland. Gearóid Ó hAllmhuráin - a fourth generation Clare concertina player and an internationally recognized authority on Irish traditional music- unveils the inner sanctum of this soundscape with the deft skills of a native storyteller and the panoptic lens of a transdisciplinary scholar.
