Dominic, I’m afraid that we’re not supporting downloading in the current format of the ComhaltasLive programme. You’re welcome, of course, to come back and listen whenever you like!—Breandán

Beautiful playing.
But just for the record, the 2nd tune was composed by Martin Mulhaire, accordion player resident in USA, and he named it originally Carmel O’Mahoney’s, prior to their marriage, but it was subsequently named Carmel O’Mahoney Mulhaire’s.
Sorry to be a pedant.
Danny.
