Tony McManus has transcended the parameters of contemporary Celtic music. his fiendishly dexterous, dazzlingly original playing draws on traditions from the entire Celtic diaspora – Scotland, Ireland, Brittany, Galicia, Asturias, Cape Breton, Quebec – along with flavours, of jazz and east European music.
