Recorded at Sigma Sound, Philadelphia, Pennsylvannia. Uilleann pipe master Jerry O'Sullivan's album The Gift is an impressive trip through a variety of genres. Playing the war-pipes, low whistle, tin whistle, smallpipes and his trademark uilleann pipes, O'Sullivan demonstrates with ease that the pipes are a versatile instrument which can adapt to many different types of music. From gospel ("Wayfaring Stranger") to baroque (a three-part selection from a Bach orchestral suite) to jazz (the piece "Clear Blue Sky" features O'Sullivan's merging of pipes with smoky jazz club piano), O'Sullivan expertly weaves a thread of intriguing musical versatility and pipe mastery throughout. ~ Lisa Schwartzman
