Caoimhe Ceol Ní Chathail

Téann Caoimhe ar cuairt chuig cleachtadh ceoil de chuid an chumadóra Michael Gallen, agus a shaothar úr, Bád Ón Alltar, ar tí bheith curtha ar an ardán le Ceolfhoireann Uladh. Cluineann muid ó Mhuireann Nic Amhlaoibh, duine de na ceoltóirí traidisúnta atá roghnaithe aige le bheith ag seinm ar an phíosa corraitheach seo.
Cluineann muid seisiún eisiach ceoil taifeadta sa BBC le Róise Ní Mhurchú, Jane Walls, Erin Maginn agus Odhrán Keown, cuid de na ceoltóirí ó Chumann Ceol Traidisiúnta, Choláiste Ollscoile Naomh Muire. Labhraíonn Róise ar chúrsaí ceoil sa choláiste agus saol s’aici féin leis an cheol.

Caoimhe visits a music rehearsal by composer Michael Gallen, whose new work Bád Ón Alltar is about to be staged with the Ulster Orchestra. We hear from Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh, one of the traditional musicians selected to perform in this powerful piece.
We also hear an exclusive music session recorded at the BBC featuring Róise Ní Mhurchú, Jane Walls, Erin Maginn, and Odhrán Keown - musicians from the Traditional Music Society at St Mary’s University College. Róise speaks about music at the college and her own life in music.
