 A live performance of Paul Harrigan’s  ‘Seven Waves Soundscape’

An Gailearaí in association with Cairdeas na bhFidiléiri proudly present Paul Harrigan’s ‘Seven Waves Soundscape.’ This is a unique opportunity to experience a live performance of the soundscape as part of the art installation currently on display in An Gailearaí. The format for the evening is an intimate Donegal ‘house concert’ with the musicians and readers performing without the barrier of amplification. 

‘Floating poems in a sea of canvas waves enveloped within a Donegal soundscape using fiddles and uilleann pipes’

 Paul, a master exponent of the Uilleann pipes will be assisted by the fiddle duet of Roisin and Ella McGrory. To complement the music, an Irish language translation of the George Mackay Brown poem cycle will be read by eminent author and story teller Eithne Ní Ghallchobhair whose scholarship has made the poems available in Irish for the first time. The poems will also be recited in English by Aobha Ní Aragáin  whose rendition added so much to the Seven Waves Soundscape C.D. launch at the R.C.C. in Letterkenny.

 You can book your tickets here or call An Gailearaí on 0874883771 to reserve a place.
