Description
From the west of Ireland comes this exciting outfit with an all new music. Featuring 40 new compositions from Carl Hession.
Úrnua are:
Carl Hession, piano and arrangements
Eimear Coughlan: fiddle & harp
Francis Cunningham: concertina
Urnua is the Irish word for fresh and new (pronounced "oor-new-a"). We came up with the named thus to reflect Carl's brand new compositions and arrangements. It also represents the unique combination of instruments. From what I'm aware, concertina and harp with piano accompaniment hasn't been done previously, especially given the fact that Eimear plays the melody on all tracks as well as accompaniment. Finally it reflects Eimear (pronounced "ee-mer") & Francis's debut as neither of us have recorded before this so in a sense we're fresh and new to the game.
