"The Donegal fiddle tradition is arguably the richest regional style in Ireland....generally aggressive, attacking sound is achieved by the use of staccato bowing coupled with demanding finger work." So reads the inside notes from the cassette tape of "The Donegal Fiddle," of field recordings made in 1949 and 1957 by Ciaran MacMathuna and Seamus Ennis for Radio Eireann. Remastered in the 1990s by Aodan O'Dubghaill it includes a liner cover replicate of a painting by Mairead NiMhaonaigh to "honour another great Donegal fiddler, Danny O'Donnell."
