“Lilt” -- a duo consisting of Tina Eck on flute and whistle and Keith Carr on bouzouki and banjo -- are trying to impersonate all of the aforementioned definitions of their name with their music.

They play the traditional dance music from Ireland:  jigs and reels, polkas and hornpipes, the occasional slow air or vocal number.
Lilt loves and tries to capture the essentials of Irish traditional music:  boundless energy, wildness and melancholy.
