  • Description

    With a voice once described by Time Out Magazine as being 'as clear and brittle as hand-blown crystal', Eithne Ní Uallacháin is widely recognised as having been one of Ireland's finest traditional singers.

    Bilingua, Eithne's first solo album, is a blend of newly-composed and traditional songs recorded in Homestead Studios, County Antrim between 1997 and 1999.

    Recorded over 15 years ago, this contemporary album is a clear reflection of the creative course on which Eithne's song writing and composition was heading before her untimely death in May 1999. It celebrates the life and legacy of an inspirational singer and composer who left us all too soon.
