    Russian musicians playing Irish music for Russian set-dancers is not something you see every day! We wanted to tell you our story, so the album features a painstakingly-designed 40-page illustrated booklet, revealing how Polca an Rí came to be, where the journey of playing for the sets has brought us, how we got all these wonderful tunes, and what Irish-Russian musical connections we've forged along the way. It comes in hard cover with fantastical art by Sophie Petkevich.

    Includes unlimited streaming of From Sliabh Moscó to Cathair Pheadair via the free Bandcamp app, plus high-quality download in MP3, FLAC and more.

Jigs: JACKIE SMALL’S / MAGUIRE’S CLAN MARCH

Sophie Petkevich – B/C accordion
Anton Zille – fiddle
Pavel Galushko – bouzouki

Irish music is made up of many names: of those who play it and inspire the others to do so, of those who make the instruments and enable the music making, and of those who’ve been collecting and preserving the music itself. The latter tend to be overlooked – but for the musicians on the prowl for good tunes they’re heroes! One such hero is Jackie Small, the ITMA sound archivist, collector, editor and piper, who among other feats has been credited with producing thousands of scores for the interactive online project PORT – which includes the Tunes of the Munster Pipers, a treasure trove of tunes collected in the 19th c. by Canon James Goodman. Literally anyone in the world can now access these tunes previously confined to the archives or not-so-mobile printed tomes – and for this we’re thankful! Another hero researcher is the fiddle player Nickie McAuliffe, who’s a walking encyclopedia of knowledge about Irish music manuscripts, particularly those unearthed in Sliabh Luachra. It was Nickie who back in 2009 gave Tony the name for the second tune (also known as the Lonesome Jig). Before there was Tunepal, there was Nickie!
