Episode 37-Tune Tale with Helen Kisiel

What do you do when language just can’t capture how hilarious—and important—an encounter in Ennis, County Clare was? Write a tune about it. That’s what Brendan Tonra did. Pianist Helen Kisiel recounted one of those tune memories in this month’s off season installment.  Plenty of music here, too. Full playlist below. * * * * * * * Thanks to everybody for listening.
