about

A recorder/guitar duo with my father, this album is inspired by music I grew up with. It includes some Renaissance and Baroque pieces, as befits our early music backgrounds, but also some traditional tunes and new compositions. Michael O’Brien plays a classical guitar and a harp guitar, both of his own design and built in his luthier shop. I play a variety of recorders, including Renaissance and Baroque instruments as well as the Helder modern tenor.
