Gala Concert: Masters of Irish Music
Scoil na gCláirseach–Festival of Early Irish Harp — SUMMER CONCERTS
This concert—in the setting of the 1000-year-old tower of Kilkenny Castle—is a rare gathering of some of the world’s leading performers on early Irish harp and pipes, together with a prize-winning sean-nós [‘old style’] singer, in a programme of evocative and lively instrumental music, solo singing, and harp songs, some of which have only recently been unearthed, and reconstructed, after several hundred years of being lost to the living tradition.
Artists:
Eibhlís Ní Ríordáin, early Irish harp and voice; Jimmy O'Brien-Moran, uilleann pipes; James Ruff, early Irish harp; Máire Ní Chéileachair, sean-nós song; Siobhán Armstrong, early Irish harp
