Beauty presents

Brighde Chambeul & Cormac Begley

This concert will be held in a secret location in West Kerry on Sunday May 1st at 2pm as part of Féile na Bealtaine. Limited spaces available. This concert will be held in a radius of 15km of Dingle and on the day of the concert, ticket holders will be notified of the concert's secret location.

Féile na Bealtaine asked Cormac to organise a number of concerts with some of his favourite artists. This concert will the first time Brighde and Cormac perform a duet concert together.

Brìghde Chaimbeul

Winner of the 2019 BBC Radio 2 Horizon Award, and 2016 BBC Radio 2 Young Folk award Scotland’s Brìghde Chaimbeul is making her mark on the global stage. A native Gaelic speaker, her style is rooted in her native language and culture, but draws inspiration from a variety of global piping traditions such as from Cape Breton, Eastern Europe and Ireland. Brìghde has devised a completely new way of arranging for pipe music that emphasises the rich textural drones of the small pipes; the constancy of sound that creates a trance-like quality in the tunes.
