Gr&aacute;inne did not have a fiddle with her then because she was just a little baby in a basket! One could see that day that Gr&aacute;inne was excited and charmed by the music. Those of us there that afternoon somehow knew that she would become a musician of note, and that she did. She is a fine fiddle player who has recorded a solo CD which was given a number of excellent reviews, and she has been a member of the renowned group Cherish the Ladies. The tune on this track is performed by Gr&aacute;inne herself and is one of her own compositions. <a href="/items/browse?advanced%5B0%5D%5Belement_id%5D=39&advanced%5B0%5D%5Btype%5D=is+exactly&advanced%5B0%5D%5Bterms%5D=Murphy%2C+Gr%C3%A1inne+%28fiddle%29+%28composer%29">Murphy, Gráinne (fiddle) (composer)</a> <a href="/items/browse?advanced%5B0%5D%5Belement_id%5D=39&advanced%5B0%5D%5Btype%5D=is+exactly&advanced%5B0%5D%5Bterms%5D=Murray%2C+Alan+%28guitar%29">Murray, Alan (guitar)</a> Séamus Connolly Boston College Libraries 2016-02-12 <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/" rel="license"><img style="border-width: 0;" src="https://i.creativecommons.org/l/by-nc/4.0/88x31.png" alt="Creative Commons License" /></a><br />This work is licensed under a <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc/4.0/" rel="license">Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial 4.0 International License</a>. <a href="/items/browse?advanced%5B0%5D%5Belement_id%5D=46&advanced%5B0%5D%5Btype%5D=is+exactly&advanced%5B0%5D%5Bterms%5D=Murphy%2C+Gr%C3%A1inne+">Murphy, Gráinne </a> <a href="/items/browse?advanced%5B0%5D%5Belement_id%5D=46&advanced%5B0%5D%5Btype%5D=is+exactly&advanced%5B0%5D%5Bterms%5D=Murray%2C+Alan">Murray, Alan</a> Some transcriptions are based on historical source recordings. <a href="/exhibits/show/essays/essay-sweeney">More info.</a> http://library.bc.edu/connolly/plugins/Dropbox/files/IMC_M064_2013_03_0230.mp3 http://library.bc.edu/connolly/plugins/Dropbox/files/02-30_Grainne_Murphys-Jig.pdf
