Also available from this website. Darragh O'Neill's debut Album 'Fountain' is a collection of his own arrangements of some of the best loved baroque classics from the guitar repertoire including music by J.S. Bach, Domenico Scarlatti, Gaspar Sanz, and Turlough Carolan. The CD also features six of Darragh's own original compositions for solo guitar. "Darragh O`Neill`s 'The Juggler and Manngha' short character pieces which are descriptive, openly charming, and so based on traditional guitar techniques that they seem to spring from inside the instrument. O`Neill`s most engaging qualities is the combination of his subtle musicianship and his knack for intimate music-making. His stylistic awareness matched the wide range of periods and compositional styles.. The folk-influenced baroque style of Bach`s older Spanish contemporary, Gaspar Sanz, was captured with a flamenco-like flair! -The Irish Times "Darragh O'Neill has the gift of knowing that to command your instrument alone closes a door on the possible. His mastery is that he gives the instrument itself an equal say in the music. His music breaths with something 'other' it threads water, its between worlds... 'into the somnambulistic' his music is ageless like all the good stuff! His playing is masterful. He listens while he is playing.. a rare thing." Glen Hansard "Darragh O`Neill is a guitarist with wonderful sensibility and artistry. He follows in the great and noble tradition of performer composers as a brilliant interpreter of his own music. As guitarist he brings delicacy and virtuosity in equal measure to other composers music as he does to his own. His music possesses a rare and deceptive simplicity, which touches the heart of the listener while at the same time firing the imagination." Carlos Bonell "You gotta check out this guy's right hand..." Tommy Emmanuel ''Finally got around to listening to Fountain and its a real gem. Its a long time since I've heard such evocative rich melodies played like that. I have it playing on loop...' Chequerboard " Darragh has distinguished himself as a musician of immense potential, combining huge reserves of talent, intellect and resourcefulness" Peter Sheppard Skaerved ".... the fantastic Darragh O'Neill Ireland's finest guitarist. I've not been able to stop listening to the 6 original compositions of his on his latest album." Max Greenwood
