with bands of many genres, inculding prog-rock, punk, heavy metal, early electronic, industrial, hardcore, techno, trance, celtic folk, and world fusion. At age 34, he took up the celtic harp, again self trained, and quickly gained prominence in performing and composing for the instrument. He played with well known Celtic acts such as Idlewild and Stonecircle, recording several albums with both bands. At that time he vigorously played the festival and small concert circuit, and performed on more than one movie soundtrack. Later fusing the harp with his electronic expertise, Irminsul branched out to other music treatments - from dramatic to commissioned works, and began fusing music forms from other cultures and time periods into current projects. Currently, Irminsul divides his time between composing for piano and strings, honing his new performance group, CANTOS ENSEMBLE and perhaps his most important endeavor - spending time with his beautiful wife, Patti, their two cats, a pacel of fish, firebelly toads, and a balcony full of wild birds. |
