Edinburgh Music Review

Martinโ€™s special sound, his mastery of his chosen instrument โ€“ the violin โ€“ his acknowledgement of the past and his shaping of the future of the music, combine to create a formidable artistic intelligence. He has drawn inspiration from many musical genres, but remains grounded in the music he grew up with in East County Clare. He has the ability to place the tradition within a wider contemporary context, creating an exquisite and insightful interpretation of Irish music.
