Is there a better way to spend the early part of St. Patrick’s night than with a concert of traditional Irish and Celtic music and dance? This evening features Irish fiddler Kathleen Gorey-McSorley and the Celtic/World Roots band Brollachan. Kathleen has performed in
Ireland,
Scotland, the
USA and various parts of
Canada. Playing with Kathleen will be Carolyn Holyoke. Kathleen and Carolyn had two memorable performances at Celtic Colours International Festival in
Cape
Breton in 2009. Brollachan blends world rhythms with Celtic melodies into their own unique sound. Strongly versed in traditional Celtic music, Brollachan does not shy away from accepting influence wherever it may come from. Hints of Latin, French-Canadian, and Bulgarian rhythms can be heard amongst traditional Irish, Scottish, and
Cape
Breton melodies. In addition to these stellar acts you will enjoy a real Irish session and be mesmerized by the senior troupe from the Stanford School of Irish Dance.
