” … you would think they’d been playing together for centuries. While his fiddle dances, her cello throbs darkly or plucks puckishly. Then [Haas] opens her cello’s throat, joining Fraser in soaring sustains, windswept refrains, and sudden, jazzy explosions. Their sound is as urbane as a Manhattan midnight, and as wild as a Clackmannan winter.” — Boston Globe

"Mná na hÉireann" at Kickin' It Irish 2023
Happy International Women's Day! Today, we celebrate the extraordinary women who inspire, lead, and enrich our lives every day. In honor of women everywhere, we're thrilled to share a beautiful performance of "Mná na hÉireann" (Women of Ireland), a musical tribute that embodies the spirit and strength of Irish women.
Featuring the incredible talents of Mary Vanorny on fiddle and Adrienne O'Shea on Irish flute and song, this piece is a testament to the power and resilience of women. Irish stepdance is performed by Adrienne, alongside Riverdance alums Cormac O'Se and Sean O'Brien. Brian Miller on guitar and Todd Menton on bodhrán round out the ensemble.
On this International Women's Day, let's acknowledge and appreciate the women who play pivotal roles in our lives, from the arts to science and households to boardrooms (and city councils!) around the world. May we continue to support and uplift one another, today and every day.
