A Song For You

AN IRISH UTOPIA

This was recorded as part of a documentary i made in 1994 about fiddle playing in Donegal.   Pat Mulhern learnt a lot of his music from his uncle James and also got lessons on how to read music from a man called Anderson who worked in the train station house in Ballymagan. Paddy Mc Donald was a travelling travelling fiddle player who made a huge impression at fair days throughout Inishowen. Paddy Mc Donald was also the noted fiddler that played at the quayside in Derry when people were leaving for America. 
Pat Mulhern was 94 years young when I recorded this interview. What an amazing man and full of wit. When I asked him how he learned the fiddle his answer was; ''I just catched it and rattled away til I hit something''.
