The Castle of Gold

This is a track from the new CD 'Band of Two' by Banna de dhá, the duo of fiddler Tom Morley and DADGAD guitarist Hazel Ketchum. The Irish phrase (pronounced 'bonna de gaw') makes reference to the 'banding together' of their two instruments, fiddle & guitar. This tune is usually played as a hornpipe but here the duo give it a moody interpretation.
