Was just looking at the new Brian McNamara Cd, did anyone hear it yet.?

Peter, even Brian’s home page doesn’t list it yet. http://www.piperbrian.com/

What’s it called? Where did you see it?

Thx,

I can’t connect to Custy’s. McAfee seems to think there is a fragment attack coming from them, or some site related to them. What’s the album called, and I’ll look for it elsewhere.

(Agree that Piper’s Dream is fine piping. I also liked Leitrim’s Hidden Treasure)

Thx,

Brian’s site indicates that there is a launch party in conjunction with the Joe Mooney Summer School as well

Thanks for the news Peter,this album is my next MUST BUY.
Brian is a fantastic piper-his playing has so much clarity and poise to it that I’d recommend that anyone learning the Pipes should listen to him.
His ‘Piper’s dream’ album is one of my favourites.

This is very, very good news. Congratulations to Brian on his new CD. I can’t wait to hear it.

If your attending any of the schools, tionals, etc where Brian is going to be this summer in the US, he is going to have the new CD with him and available for purchase. I sent him an email yesterday to inquire about this because I get to go to Irish Arts Week in East Durham NY :slight_smile: where he is one of the instructors. I thought I would be able to wait and save shipping costs. Not so sure I can wait though, his first solo CD is never out of reach in the car, its very very good.

Peter, please edit the topic name to include Brian McNamara.
It will make searching the archives easier.

I figured that I would pick up the recording in North Hero this August where Brian will be teaching. I’ve really enjoyed his playing on both his solo cd and the family recording.

15

After listening the total recordings:
it’s a work of art

I’am still listening to -Dun na Sead- My favourite

progressive
inspirative

Brian has just confirmed that the CD will be available from his own web site in a few days: http://www.piperbrian.com

As well, it should be available from Claddagh any day now, as he says they are his main distributor: http://www.claddaghrecords.com/

That Laban fella is always boastin’ :smiley:

Just thought I’d bump this up. If you don’t have it yet, you can order on-line from Brian’s site at: http://www.piperbrian.com/

I really enjoyed the very tight duets between Brian and Benedict Koehler. I was surprised to find this was the first time Benedict had been in a recording studio. Now that he’s got his feet wet, let’s hope it won’t be the last.

Brian and Benadict do play well together. They were at our Tionol last year along with Kevin Rowsome. Any one of them would have been a treat to listen to, but having all three of them together was fantastic.
