Paddy Noonan's much loved "Musical Taste of Ireland" is once again available to you. This a wonderful CD of Irish instrumental classics. It fills you with a great sense of serenity. Paddy Noonan and The Irish Light Orchestra help you to experience the soul of Ireland as never before.
A selection of Paddy Noonan recordings have been selected by Ireland's most collected painter Philip Gray to accompany his new painting "Sounds of Erin". Each person to purchase a limited edition print will also receive a CD featuring Paddy Noonan. The recordings were selected based on the premise of supporting the mood of the painting. "Paddy is able to express through his music exactly what I felt as I painted 'Sound of Erin'" says Gray. It is the first time a collaboration between musician and painter has been marketed my Irish Artists. "I am gratified that an artist the caliber of Philip Gray selected my work to accompany his! Our two forms of art are not that different -- we both try to bring people to a place in their minds where they can be contemplative, happy, maybe even serene, but most of all capture the essence of Ireland. It has been a pleasure to work with Philip on this project."
The Sound of Erin print and CD can be purchased at select Irish shops in the U.S. The original work is presented on display at the Blackthorn Gallery at 'Tipperary at Tara - America's Irish Shop' in Brunswick NY. [Tipperary Website]

This recording introduces the lovely, an endearing young girl from Killeavy Co. Armagh, who joins Andy Cooney and Paddy Noonan to celebrate an enjoyable potpourri of Irish music and song. This is a wonderful, up-beat recording to be enjoyed at any lively Irish gathering, and with this in mind, John Scot Trotter sums up all the fun when he sings "Wasn't That A Party".
Instrumental
Featuring Paddy Noonan, Cleo Meaney, John Scot Trotter and Seamus Greene
This County Kerry immigrant was discovered singing at a party in Worcester, Massachusetts shortly after coming to the U.S. in 1949, and rocketed to fame in Ireland and over here. In style and material, Connie Foley bridged the gap between tenor John McCormack and the great ballad singers like the Clancy Brothers, who would emerge in the late 1950s.
