Tony Curtis & Dermot McLaughlin
We talk about becoming part of the tradition of music playing and poetry writing and what those two art forms have in common. We also talk about the role memory plays in passing on tradition.
Dermot plays some traditional airs and Tony reads 'The Mole and the Cosmos', 'A Blessing of Things Well Made' and 'Tunes Carried on the Night Air' from his latest poetry collection 'Approximately in the Key of C' (ARC Publications, 2015).
