“In September 2006 a Welshman, Rhodri Davies, travelled to Ireland to play harp with two Irishmen, David Lacey (percussion and electronics) and Dennis McNulty (computer). The trio recorded in St Patrick’s church in Dalkey, just south of Dublin as children played in the school playground next door and roadworkers went about their business along the road. Poor Trade, the resulting CD is a rich, colourful swell of detailed improvisation captured in the moment by the skilled microphone of David Reid. Sensually brooding in places, gloriously alive in others this is passionate, joyous music.”
