The Branch hosts recitals twice a year, in early summer and at Christmas. These events are highlights of our calendar and we have had many memorable evenings in the company of the finest traditional musicians in Ireland. These include:
- Edel Fox & Neill Byrne
- Seán McKeon & Liam O’Connor
- Paul O’Shaughnessy & Paul McGrattan
- Ferdia, Fiachna & Seamus Ó Mongáin
- Tommy Fitzharris, Phil Clarke & Caoimhín Ó Fearghaill
- Ciarán Ó Maonaigh & Caitlín Nic Gabhann
- Louise & Michelle Mulcahy
- Afric Boylan & Ciarán O’Grady
- Micheal & MacDara Ó Raghallaigh
- Paudie O’Connor & John O’Brien
- June McCormack & Michael Rooney
- Catherine & John McEvoy
- Edel Fox & Ronan O’Flaherty
- Breton Group
We strive to promote our music within the wider community and our recitals are an important aspect of this work. It also a wonderful opportunity for our young musicians to witness the greatest exponents of our traditional music in a small and intimate setting here in Leixlip.
We hope these opportunities will inspire and encourage our young members to develop as musicians and foster their interest in the tradition and culture which surrounds the music.
