A few unbiased opinions about Albert Alfonso drums …
“My introduction to Irish music and early experiences as an accordion player shaped my approach to playing the bodhrán. I gained not only a sense of melody, but a love and understanding of the tunes. This led me to want to make a drum that is more than just percussive. I wanted a drum that has the ability to be thought of, treated like, and made to sound an integral part of the melody.”
