	Donal Lunny - a short biography.
		Donal Lunny is from Newbridge, Co. Kildare, where in his early years he formed a duo, the Rakes of Kildare with Christy Moore (who also lived in Newbridge at the time), occasionally assisted by Donal's brother Frank on the whistle.
		Donal was commissioned to write the title piece, which brings together instruments from various cultures, such as fiddle, Irish harp, African kora, harpsichord, piano, saxophone, harmonica, keyboards and various percussion instruments.
		Donal was asked to do a series of music shows for the new Gealic-speaking TV station Telefi/s na Gaeilge (TnaG), for which he used a pretty impressive group of musicians as the house band, including fiddler Nollaig Casey, guitarist Steve Cooney and ace piper John McSherry, and occasionally complemented by Sharon Shannon on accordion.

		The Donal Lunny influence is most tangible – he leaves an indelible stamp on every project he touches.
		For Maurice, the electrical guitar represents the spirit of the land, and the fiddle represents Brian Boru, which is why the two are the main instruments used on the album.
		Donal Lunny is the production hand, with a strong colouring from Noel Eccles' percussion and Mick O'Brien and Mikey Smith on uilleann pipes.

		Dónal Lunny needs at least a two-CD set to collate his musical high points over the last few decades; a box set might even be more apt.
		There's possibly too much focus here on Lunny's work in the '90s, with an emphasis on the Sult and Coolfin bands, and his work as an accompanist, with "Shan Van Vocht," and several other tracks -- more of his sparkling bouzouki and guitar work would have been welcome.
		Toward the end, you get the short pieces that comprise "Millennium Suite," Lunny's pan-Celtic composition that was presented worldwide by the BBC on December 31, 1999, a fitting end to a celebration of the man. ~ Chris Nickson, All Music Guide

		Donal Lunny isn't a legendary figure in Irish music for nothing.
		Lunny himself is outstanding on bouzouki and guitar, but he never dominates, allowing this to be a real band album.
		It might not be as important as the work he did in the �70s, but there's little doubt that the quality of the musicianship and arrangements mark a standard everyone else now has to measure up to, especially after "The Mouseskin Shoe And Dancing in Allihies." ~ Chris Nickson, All Music Guide

		Among the highlights of the month were the six nights with the Liberty Belles (Andy Irvine, Donal Lunny, Liam O'Flynn, Paddy Glackin and Noel Hill) when Paul went back to his traditional Irish music period to recreate a concert he had done with the same line up in 1978.
		Donal Lunny on bouzouki, Liam O'Flynn on uileann pipes and whistle and Ciaran Tourish on fiddle slotted in and the scene changed to the Russian front during the Napoleonic era with a spirited rendition of another great song.
		On to 'You're the One' which saw Mark settling into his requested role as groove master for the rest of the evening down in the band's engine room, and Donal and Ciaran driving things along on the bridge.
