Mary Bergin

Mary Bergin is a renowned Irish traditional musician, celebrated for her exceptional skill on the tin whistle. Born in Dublin, Ireland, she developed a deep appreciation for her country’s musical heritage early on in life. She was largely self-taught, honing her craft through diligent practice and immersion in the vibrant folk scene of Ireland. By the 1970s, Bergin had established herself as a premier tin whistle player, not just locally but on an international scale.

Her recording career has been central to her acclaim with a series of influential albums, including her seminal works "Feadóga Stáin" (1979), "Feadoga Stáin 2" (1993), and her debut "Feadóga Stáin" (also known as "Feadóga Stáin 1" to differentiate it from her later work). These albums are considered classics in the genre, showcasing Mary's virtuosic precision and ornate style that is both authentic and innovative. Bergin's music transcends the bounds of folk, endearing her to audiences both within and beyond the traditional music community. Her influence extends to subsequent generations of musicians, cementing her legacy as one of the most distinguished tin whistle players of all time.
