My name is George, but for the moment please allow me to be frank.

Two things up front: I’m not a writer and I’m not a web surfer.

When I say I’m not a writer, I mean I didn’t plan to be. I have a good life and a wonderful family. My friends all say I tell good stories and a few of them pushed me to writing them down. See, there’s this publisher called Trestle Press and they are making waves, becoming known. So my friend says send that story to them. I did and here we are.…

Traditional Notes: A Celebration of Irish Music and Musicians

Photography and Text by Stephen Power



 "... you pick up your instrument to feel it, tune it, test it, breathe its incense … and then the magic starts. It is this magic that Stephen Power captures with these photographs. The meeting of craft and art, the joy and intensity of playing music, the spell cast by fingers deft as a conjurer, are here in close-up....

I’ll try to give you some examples…
