Wednesday March 11, 2015 – 6pm
Award-winning musicians in their own right, Caitlín Nic Gabhann & Ciarán Ó Maonaigh are quickly becoming one of the foremost duets in Ireland today. Their music & dance is rooted in the tradition; full of spirit, soul and life. Together on fiddle, concertina & dance, they breath fire into traditional tunes, combining the two arts with enough chemistry and energy to fire a small steam engine! “Caitlín Nic Gabhann and Ciarán O Maonaigh are two of the finest instrumentalists on the Irish traditional scene. Individually they are stunning but together they bring a freshness and excitement to the music that is uniquely their own. Their recent performance at the Tulla Trad Festival in Co.Clare was the highlight of the weekend for me.” Robbie O’Connell (The Clancy Brothers)
Presented by Young Tradition Vermont, the Burlington Violin Shop and the Burlington Irish Heritage Festival.
