Cliffs of Moher

Penny whistle, fife and flute are common Celtic music instruments. Josie McDermott (1925–1992) was a traditional Irish musician: a flute and tin whistle player, composer and singer. He travelled with his whistle, fife and flute and played at many sessions or dances throughout the Irish countryside. In 1962 McDermott, shortly after the death of his mother, lost his sight, living as a blind man for the last 30 years of his life. He continued playing both in a céilidh and a modern dance band. He also composed dance tunes, wrote a number of songs and ballads and took a particular interest in the music of O’Carolan, the great blind harpist.
