Pauline Cato & Tom McConville

Fiddler's Fancy is devoted to the music of one of Tom's heroes, James Hill. A 19th century fiddle player and composer, Hill was known as the 'Paganini of Hornpipe Players' and spent much of his life in Tom's native Newcastle. The album features exclusively Hill's tunes, all played in their original keys.
