An afternoon full of traditional Irish music, song and dance, intended for kids from the ages of 7 to 16. Activities will include demonstrations by local musicians of many of the traditional instruments (harp, fiddle, accordion, bodhrán, flute), introduction to the styles and rhythms of the music, a lesson on the tin whistle (including a whistle for each participant to keep), and learning an Irish song and traditional dance.
If some participants are already proficient on an instrument (at least 2 years of experience), bring them along! We will lead a group learning Irish tunes and playing session style as a group. |
