His recordings are among the first field recordings to be made in Ireland of Irish traditional music. It is fitting that these recordings are now part of the corpus of digital archive sources for Irish traditional music hosted by UCC.<\/p>\n<p>The dissemination of the digitised contents of the Henebry and O\u2019Neill cylinders expands the soundscape from which Irish traditional musicians and scholars will draw inspiration and enjoyment. That this music is now excavated and recovered from the university basement in which it resided, rarely heard, for a century or more is also in keeping with Henebry\u2019s ambition that the music be made available for all to hear.<\/p>\n<h3>Henebry\/O\u2019Neill Project Team<\/h3>\n<p>Project Leaders:<br \/>\nDr Mel Mercier (Department of Music, UCC)<br \/>\nCr\u00f3n\u00e1n \u00d3 Doibhlin (UCC Library, UCC)<\/p>\n<p>Project Assistant:<br \/>\nMary Mitchell-Ingoldsby (Department of Music, UCC)<\/p>\n<p>Cylinder Digitisation:<br \/>\nHenri Chamoux http:\/\/www.archeophone.org\/<\/p>\n<p>Library Support:<br \/>\nElaine Charwat (UCC Library)<\/p>\n<p>Filming:<br \/>\nChris Hurley, Maximilian Le Cain and Ed Cashman (Cork Film Centre)<\/p>\n<p>Website Design:<br \/>\nFrank Prendergast<\/p>\n<p>Website Text and Research:<br \/>\nDr M\u00e9abh N\u00ed Fhuarth\u00e1in (Centre for Irish Studies, NUIG)<\/p>\n<p>Tune Notation:<br \/>\nFiachra \u00d3 Corrag\u00e1in (Department of Music, UCC)<\/p>\n<p>Photography and Technical Assistance:<br \/>\nJohn Hough (Department of Music, UCC)<\/p>\n<p>Assistant Audio Engineer:<br \/>\nTadhg Kelleher (Sul\u00e1n Studios)<\/p>\n<p>Website Editing:<br \/>\nJohn Hough <\/p>\n<p>Curation:<br \/>\nThe Henebry\/O\u2019Neill wax cylinder collection is held in Special Collections, UCC Library (Contact Elaine Harrington, Special Collections Librarian, email: specialcollections@ucc.ie).<\/p>\n<p>Project Supporters:<br \/>\nUniversity College Cork, Ireland and the project team gratefully and sincerely acknowledge Bill and Una Murphy who through their generosity enabled the realization of this significant project.<\/p>\n<p>All donations to University College Cork are facilitated through Cork University Foundation (Ireland), Irish Educational Foundation and American Ireland Fund (USA) and the UK Educational Foundation (UK) working in partnership with the University College Cork Development and Alumni team.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks:<br \/>\nDr Jean Van Sinderen-Law (UCC)<br \/>\nJohn Fitzgerald (UCC)<br \/>\nColette McKenna (UCC)<br \/>\nCarmel Daly (UCC)<br \/>\nPatrick Egan (UCC)<br \/>\nWilliam Power (Mount Bolton, Co.
