Additions to Martin Doyle Flutes

UpdateRecently added are two new testimonials from people that have purchased Martin Doyle Flutes. One from Iris Klapper of Christchurch, New Zealand, who writes,

“Dear Martin – it has been a few weeks now since you sent the boxwood flute, and I just wanted to let you know how much I love it. She is simply beautiful and just what I asked for. I am not practising enough at the moment, but whenever I do she sends me off to another realm. So much depth and sweetness. :-) Thank you!!”

And one from David Craig of Duluth, Minnesota, USA, who writes,

“Hi Martin. The flute arrived yesterday and, of course, it is beautiful. It plays easily and I suspect there is an angel singing in there somewhere. Thanks for the quick turn-around.”

Irish Translation Added

UpdateJust added to Martin Doyle Flutes: a Irish version of Martin Doyle’s homepage.

The translation was very kindly furnished by the renowned Irish biographer and encyclopaedist Diarmuid Breathnach of County Wicklow, Ireland.

Born in 1930, Diarmuid was educated at University College Dublin and became a librarian in Kilkenny, then a sound archivist and chief librarian at RTÉ from 1974 to 1986. His major achievement is the compilation, with Máire Ní Mhurchú, of Beathaisnéis, a multi-volume dictionary of modern Gaelic culture. On May 17, 2002, the National University of Ireland conferred honarary degrees – The Degree of Doctor of Celtic Studies – upon Diarmuid Breathnach and Máire Ní Mhurchú at the National University of Ireland, Maynooth.

Our heart-felt gratitude goes to Diarmuid for his kind efforts with the Irish translation of the Martin Doyle’s homepage – thank you Diarmuid!
