"Critical songs with
good melodies. The Irishman Dennis Dennehy enthused his audience"
"....the Ruined
Castle
Lichteneck offered the right flair for a Saturday night... The guitar concert
brought more people than expected..."
"The songs, all own
compositions are as different as the people are. Some are melancholic and
sad, some upbeat fast and happy go lucky songs. He confounded with a couple
paradoxes between content and melody - Dennehy explained he loved to play some
critical songs with easy to listen to melodies."
"Some of the audience
were initially surprised that no Irish traditional songs were played, someone
actually bought his Bagpipe with him, just in case. But they were all
surprised at the great variety of sounds, which Dennehy managed to entice
out of his guitars."
"The stories he tells
in his songs deal mainly with day to day topics. Some were experienced by
himself, others were inspired by friends and people he met." They
deal with a deeply felt life philosophy."
"... during the break
the music gave a lot to think about like themes such as the destroying of
environment. Sometimes he spoke during the songs about the double meaning
of some of his texts and critical pieces and the stories behind them."
"Whether it was in 'Did you
ever' or Sunny days and moonlit nights', Dennis Dennehy managed to carry over
the atmosphere of his songs to his public.. Everyone braced their ears when
suddenly a long instrumental piece vibrated Indian (Asian) type sounds
throughout the hall, which almost bought a meditative touch, but did not disrupt
the atmosphere at all"
