Paul Dooley - Rip The Calico

Paul Dooley - Rip The Calico

- Default Title
Description
Paul Dooley is a wonderful player of the wire-strung harp, the instrument which was in use among the old Irish harpers, but is not commonly heard nowadays. Strung with brass strings instead of nylon, the instrument has a characteristically bright, shimering sound. Like several of his contemporaries, Dooley has developed a virtuosic technique which allows him to play Irish dance tunes with ornaments, as well as the airs and pieces more often associated with the harp.
