Flute Masterclass with John Wynne
Masterclass 3pm-5:30pm for Intermediate & Advanced Players
Venue Ballintogher Enterprise Centre, Co. Sligo, F91 C2HT
John Wynne and John McEvoy are revered musicians and this album, a follow-up to their acclaimed and well-loved 2007 album “Pride of the West,” is one that fans of traditional music played will absolutely love and consider a “must-have.” The music is elegant and refined and simply delightful to listen to.
Wynne hails from Roscommon and has a great background. In the early 2000s, he was a member of the band Providence (with Mícheál Ó Raghallaigh, Joan McDermott, Paul Doyle, Clodagh Boylan, Méabh O’Hare and Liz Kane) and around that time made “With Every Breath” (2000), the first of a pair of solo albums, with his “Ar Nós na Gaoithe / Like the Wind” releasing in 2009.
McEvoy was born in Birmingham, England, with parents from Roscommon and like Wynne grew up with music. Among his outstanding work are a pair of albums, “Returning” with his wife Jacinta McEvoy (harp) in 1998 and “The Kilmore Fancy,” which he recorded in 2004, with his sister Catherine (flute) and Felix Dolan (piano).
In addition to this work, Wynne and McEvoy are actively involved in teaching and each appeared independent of one another on “In The Footsteps Of Coleman,” a 2005 album issued by the Coleman Traditional Society.
