[Paul Gleeson]

During lockdown RTÉ radio's Rolling Wave programme, with the Irish Traditional Music Archive, commissioned 10 composers to write new tunes on whatever instruments they had in their homes.  Amongst the 10 was Edel Fox who wrote two lovely tunes, and recorded them on the concertina.  The recordings and transcription of the tunes can be found here, with all the other compositions.  I thought it might be of interest to ITM players.  https://www.itma.ie/blog/faoiseamh
