PENT-UP PIPES

Nobel-winner Heaney and bagpiper Liam O’Flynn are performing together in a “unique partnership of bardic voice and eloquent pipe.” Heaney reads his poetry and O’Flynn follows him on the pipes, exploring turn of line, enjambments, rhymes, and cadences in a medium of euphonious conversation. “Declaim the verse, strike up the pipe, and generally vent the pent!” – The Scotsman
