The names of the tunes were not given

Great composer and player and beautiful story teller- behind all the tunes there is always a story as Vincent always said

Fantastic

RIP Vincent - a proper stalwart of the East Galway flute style. Flute players are indebted to him for his compositions, all of which fit so comfortably on the instrument.

The first tune here is called "The New Broom" and, I think the second one is called "The Mountain Stream" but can't be sure.

Thanks Vincent.

Great stuff, and what a brilliant set of tunes Mr broderick left us with. I don't speak Irish - did anyone pick up what the tune names were for the set played? Thanks glenman!
