SEISIUN

The summer Seisuin at Bruach Na Carraige is again proving to be a big attraction to both locals and visitors alike. Taking place each Tuesday till August 28 the show gets under way at 9 p.m. where you can see and hear the best traditional music from Ireland’s oldest manuscripts. Also, you can enjoy some of Ireland’s ancient solo traditional step dances which have practically vanished and ones that you will not find at any other venue. You are invited to bring along your instruments or dancing shoes as

there is always the opportunity for audience participation.

The Sliabh Luachra summer School takes place on August 8/9/10 with traditional music from old manuscripts being taught to advanced students directed by Nickie McAuliffe from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. From 2.30 the solo step dance ‘ The King of the Fairies’ takes centre stage with Maurice and Sarah O’Keeffe on hand to guide you on stage.
