O'carolan - 16 Trios for String Trio (2 Violins and Cello)

Today Turlough O'Carolan (1670-1738) is considered to be the last great harp player of Ireland and is surrounded by an almost mystical aura. Numerous anecdotes have been handed down which testify to a strong personality a huge musical talent and enormous self-confidence. Unlike any other he knew how to combine old Irish music with Italian Baroque music thus creating a large number of compositions about 200 of which have survived. Beautiful pieces between folk and art music. 16 of them were selected by Patrick Pf and arranged for string trio. A separate viola part is also available - in case no violoncello is available.
