Seamus Tansey photo(s) / info?

Irish Flute

Hi,

My little community in East-Central Illinois may be lucky enough to get the Sligo flute player Seamus Tansey in for a concert in early April. I am trying to find photos of Mr. Tansey but am only finding album art. Do any of you have photos you might share?

There’s that vintage RTE youtube footage of the young Tansy tootling while his parents beam uncomfortably.

I don’t think his parents are in the video. This came up a while ago… The guy next to him is Darach O Cathain the sean nos singer, who can also be seen singing on youtube. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3AFRCWg_kOc

I have a snap I took of Seamus in London in 1980, if that’s any use, but I assume you’d prefer something more recent. I could scan it and send it to you.
