Irish Times, Michael Dervan :
” Yet the tradition of music it salutes has long had in Ireland a Cinderella-like position, an invisibility
that can sometimes seem like the airbrushing or photoshopping into non-existence of a major art form.
Composers have felt the slight acutely.
‘I’m a Composer’—‘You’re a What?’ was the title Frank Corcoran gave an essay he contributed to The Crane Bag
back in 1982. It was his way of explaining that Irish people simply didn’t see being a composer as a serious
or full-time occupation.
