Opening night: First Friday April 4th 5-8pm
We proudly present Internationally known harpist, Lily Neill.
Beginning at 6 pm Lily will perform music of the 17th and 18th century treating listeners to a perfomance that explores the story of Ireland’s iconic national instrument.
“Put aside everything you ever thought you knew about the harp and open your ears to the wealth of sound that two hands and thirty strings can conjure!” Lily Neill
Following Lily’s performance the Dó Cairde School of Irish Dance will perform. Irish dance is a traditional dance form that originated in Ireland. It is characterized by rapid foot movements, precise steps, and an upright body posture.
Lily will return to her harp for a final performance.
What an exciting night this will be. There are a few other surprises that we are working on so stay tuned.
