Eileen Gannon and Robert Ryan

Eileen, a St. Louis native, is one of the top Irish harp players in the world. Robert Ryan is a traditional Irish fiddler from London, who grew up immersed in the thriving Irish musical community of that city. Eileen and Robert are both born to Irish immigrant parents, and in childhood they learned their music within the immigrant community of the Irish diaspora. In 2021, they released their duo album “Down The Rocky Road” and this concert marks the release of their companion book of transcriptions for melody and accompaniment instruments.
