An album of 32 original compositions by Jack Talty. "The Clare musician, producer and academic Jack Talty has already made a telling contribution to Irish traditional music, and with the release of his new CD Coire an Cheoil makes his strongest statement yet as a composer" - Adrian Scahill, The Journal of Music "As substantial a statement in Irish traditional composition as the year is likely to produce, and a compelling case for Talty as one of the most quietly important figures working in Irish trad today" - Nialler 9
