This time around, Olaf Sickmann realized that it wasn’t enough to just record a new tin whistle CD. As well as providing great listening pleasure, New Irish Tin Whistle Tunes is intended to inspire purchasers to creative participation. And so as well as the tunes, this CD also contains Olaf’s original guitar accompaniments in mp3 format (as playalongs without tin whistle), plus a PDF songbook with notation, chords and background information on the 10 titles. “That’s how to keep on selling CDs in the age of streaming services! Congratulations!”, wrote a satisfied Amazon customer. After “Original Tin Whistle Session Tunes” (2012) and “Whistle Man” (2014), New Irish Tin Whistle Tunes (2020) is Olaf Sickmann’s third tin whistle album and his twelfth solo album overall. It represents a further step in realizing his vision of new Irish tin whistle music. Sickmann plays a single tin whistle in the standard key of D major on all titles, accompanied just by his acoustic guitar. His passion for the instrument can be felt in every note and each tune reflects his deep love of Irish instrumental music and its unique session culture, as well as the depth of his familiarity with the tin whistle tradition and its countless exponents, whether famous or unknown. New Irish Tin Whistle Tunes combines gorgeous melodies and great technique with relaxed authenticity. Almost imperceptibly, Sickmann introduces tasteful embellishments and subtle variations, without ever disturbing the flow of the melody. His playing is like birdsong. In the course of the last 20 years, the German composer, guitarist and tin whistle player has carved out his own niche with timelessly beautiful instrumental music. His compositions are played regularly on radio and TV (amongst others in WDR, NDR, MDR, SWR, SR, BR & HR) and are also popular as teaching material. Increasingly they are also used by companies for promotional purposes. 01 What I Want / Royal Chair / Chess! Chess!

The fourteenth album of Olaf Sickmann has been inspired by several journeys along Irelands “Wild Atlantic Way” in County Clare in the last 5 years. Great people, fantastic music and a stunning landscape have made a deep impression that is reflected on “The Coast Of County Clare“. With this release, Olaf continues to pursue and develop his personal vision of contemporary Irish tin whistle music, using only a single tin whistle in D major. His enthusiasm and devotion to the instrument can be felt in every note, in each composition. His intensive study of Irish instrumental music, especially the session repertoire, and its myriad exponents, both famous and unknown can be heard in his music. On “The Coast Of County Clare“, Sickmann combines beautiful melodies and great technique with natural authenticity. Subtle variations and relaxed embellishments never disturb the flow of the melody. Whilst Olaf chirps himself through 44 wonderful melodies, the Scottish musician Cameron Robson (Cantrip, Bellevue Rendezvous among others) accompanies him in an intensive, exciting and sensitive way on the cittern. This is a very old instrument that had been played in the Renaissance already and it can also be found in Celtic music. So a unique and at times nearly archaic and hypnotic sound is created. Cameron has been on tour in many European countries and in the States and has been part of the Irish/Scottish music scene in Edinburgh for more than 20 years. On stage the duo will play the compositions of “The Coast Of County Clare“ as well as some of Olaf's unique guitar compositions and some of Cameron's favourite songs. I HAD A DREAM: As late as in his mid-twenties Olaf started playing the tin whistle and listening to Irish Traditional Music. Sparked by a female street musician in the city of Galway, Olaf knew immediately that he wanted to do this for the rest of his life. He said goodbye to the world and took on a part-time job that made it possible for him to study tin whistle and Irish Music with the goal of being able to work full time as a musician one day. A few years later in his late twenties he got into composing new Irish music for the tin whistle and guitar more and more. He wanted to find his own musical voice and is still continuing to do so. By now, his CD's have been reviewed in the renowned “Irish Music Magazine” and are listed in the “Irish Traditional Music Archive“ in Dublin. Many of his tin whistle and guitar compositions are played on the radio in Ireland and Germany. To give other people the opportunity to play Olaf’s music or get inspired by it, there is a music book on the CD “The Coast Of County Clare“ with all melodies, simple guitar chords and background stories. 01 The Coast Of Country Clare / Whistle Man #1 / Aminor Jig 02 Harp Reels #1 & #2 / Jondalen Reel 03 Bike Bell Fancy / Japanese Garden / Whistle Waltz #1 / Not Too Bad / Whistle Waltz #2 04 Late Night Reel / The Jailhouse / I Am Not That Man 05 Trip To Berlin / Tender And Tame 06 Demolition Kid / December Slip Jig / The Beauty And The Melancholy 07 The Galway Jig / Kitchen Jig / Holiday 08 Time To Stay / The Old Autumn Hornpipe09 Breton Fantasy #2 / May Reel / The Doolin Road10 Whistle Man #2 / Clap Your Hands / On The Beach #211 Olaf’s Polka #2 / Olaf’s Polka #1 / Polka On A Thursday Morning / Controverse / Coastfire12 A Waltz On A Beautiful Morning / Deep Summer13 My Place To Be / Winter Espresso / We Do14 Too Much Phone / 2 Hours / The White House Reel15 Sunday Morning Heart Blues
