North Roscommon is one of those very rare examples of a region in Ireland that can celebrate a written record of music spanning half a millennium. In this specially curated performance, we travel through time, beginning with Cormac McDermott, whose music survives as the result of his work at the court of Elizabeth I and James VI and I.

Martin Tourish (accordion), John Carty (fiddle), Mossie Martin (fiddle), Fiachra Guihen (harp), Emma Benson (harp), Padraic Collins (harp), Bernard Flaherty (flute), Joe Kennedy (bodhran) and James Carty (fiddle).
