The Traditional Music Band from Coláiste Eoin / Íosagáin came to play for us as part of Seachtain na Gaeilge events. We enjoyed listening to the many tunes played by a wide range of instruments. It didn't take long before we were all clapping and tapping to the beat enthusiastically! Among the instruments being played were; the concert flute, uilleann pipes, bazooca, fiddle, bosca ceoil, banjo, snare drum and tin whistle.
However, not to be outdone, the Brigid's boys showed their wonderful range of talents also as they played alongside Pat O' Connor, our tin whistle Teacher. Conor Flannery on the fiddle and Robert Naughton on the harp and the senior boys on the tin whistle showed how all their practice has certainly paid off! The 6th class boys had us all clapping loudly with their version of the “Haca Gaelach”.
Comhghairdeas le gach duine a ghlac páirt in imeachtaí Seachtain na Gaeilge.
