About Silverwood Quartet

The Silverwood Quartet comes full circle in their exploration of Celtic music with the release of "A Celtic Mosaic". When the group first formed over a decade ago, flutist/Celtic harpist Andra Bohnet brought in some arrangements for the group to play of music by Turloch O'Carolan, the famed blind harper (1670-1738), whose lilting Irish melodies have survived and are beloved to this day. It was the first time anyone in the quartet had heard of O'Carolan or paid much attention to Irish music in general, but it planted a seed of interest that took root and continues to grow.
