"I didn't want to drag it around to feiseanna, so we compromised on fiddle. Still Irish, much more portable." He hasn't been to a feis in years. Actually, Ronan hasn't touched an instrument with the intent to play it in years, not since his father died. "I was never as good at fiddle as my brother was at bouzouki, though."

Matthew was excellent at bouzouki and terrible at the pipe organ, which Ronan suppose is fitting. The pipe organ was always too heavy and dark for Matthew's personality, in Ronan's opinion.
