Reviews "Martha wrote five of the tunes herself. As she explained recently, ’To keep a tradition alive it is necessary to keep writing tunes in that style.’ These new tunes in traditional style are beautiful little tone poems, displaying a keen sense of humor and a certain inventiveness that is sure to keep the tradition alive."

"It is amazing how traditional these sound, as though she were a harper of old. some 200 years ago. More than style acquisitions, Clancy is simpatico with the ancients in a strange and beautiful way....Brilliant"
Irish Edition Ensemble
"’Harp is to music what music is to life", is a quotation that truly describes Martha Clancy’s harp career. Music has always been a priority in Martha’s life. One of six children, she learned throughout her childhood that music was an integral part of her family life. Martha ’s music background includes studies in voice, drums, and mandolin."
