Lipids

“O’Halpin deploys the sonic possibilities of the electric guitar in ways that are pretty much alien to those of its familiar role in rock music….hesitant, random and delicate, several different registers – high, middle and low – all in subdued, intimate discourse with one another.” - The Irish Times Lipids is Dubliner Barry O’Halpin’s first composer portrait release with Crash Records. These three works from 2014-2019 chart the evolution of Barry’s inventive and exploratory writing for both chamber ensemble and solo electric guitar, as composer in residence and guitarist with Crash Ensemble.
