All my life I’ve grown up with the enchanting sounds of my native country, Ireland. For so long the majestic music filling my heart was but a dream, thanks to Music of Ireland: Welcome home, it is now a reality. The performers I’ve admired all my life are here, just before me. The beauty in their ability of song and dance gives me a dream to look up to. Never shall I love anything more deeply than that of Ireland, and its rich heritage of life.
All my best,
Morgan Flynn Etnyre
