Absolutely Irish! brings together the brightest stars of traditional Irish music for a once-in-a-lifetime concert that will leave folk music fans stunned by the virtuoso performances. Filmed live at the intimate Irish Arts Center in New York City s famed Hell s Kitchen neighborhood, Irish music impresario Mick Moloney presents three generations of brilliant musicians as they display their mastery on much-beloved jigs, reels, and airs, then rock the hall with contemporary takes on favorite old tunes.With special guest appearances by two living legends--80-year-old flute player Mike Rafferty and 85-year-old Irish dancer Jo McNamara -- and a heart-tugging rendition of Leaving Liverpool performed by the entire ensemble, Absolutely Irish! showcases the best talent on the Irish music scene today.Absolutely Irish! includes performances by: whistle player Joanie Madden; fiddlers Liz Carroll, Eileen Ivers, and Athena Tergis; flute and banjo player Seamus Egan; guitarist John Doyle; singers Karan Casey, Robbie O Connell, and Susan McKeown; piper Jerry O Sullivan; concertina player Tim Collins; accordionist Billy McComiskey; and dancers Niall O Leary and Darrah Carr.This DVD also features bonus footage of eight additional performances at the Irish Arts Center!
