Seosaimhín Ní Bheaglaoich leads Irish traditional song workshopSaturday, March 7th at 3pm
at Glucksman Ireland House NYU
Acclaimed West Kerry artist Seosaimhín Ni Bheaglaoich leads a fun, informative session on traditional Irish-language song. Learn Irish vocabulary through song and practice pronunciation.
Of
a famous and musically accomplished family from the Gaeltacht area of
Corca Dhuibhne and educated at Trinity College Dublin, Seosaimhín was a
founding member of the group MACALLA, Ireland’s first all-female
traditional music group, which enjoyed great success in the 1980s.
Irish television audiences first became familiar with Seosaimhín as a solo performer when she hosted the popular series “The Mountain Lark” from 1993 onwards. In that year she also undertook a highly successful tour of the U.S. organized by the Irish-American Cultural Institute. She worked with Radio na Gaeltachta in Dublin and released her solo album, “Taobh na Greine: Under the Sun” and “Suailcí Sona: Songs from a Gaeltacht Childhood.”
This event is made possible by a generous grant by the Department of Community, Rural and Gaeltacht Affairs.
