The Flute Maker Martin Doyle

Joe Doyle composed and recorded this tune in late August 2011. He said that the tune came to him while he was playing his rosewood flute in the garden of Martin Doyle’s home in County Clare, so he named it in honour of his father.

Thanks, I had fun playing that…

A nice, uncomplicated tune, this. No frills - it just makes its point, plain and simple.
