Skylarks in Concert at the Folk School

Description

The Celtic Trio “na Skylark,” will be featured in concert at 7:00 pm on Friday, April 20^th at the John C. Campbell Folk School in Brasstown, NC. The concert, which will be held in the Keith House Community Room, is free and open to the public. Donations appreciated.
 
 
na Skylark, which simply means “the skylarks” in Irish, is dedicated to playing the traditional music of Ireland, Scotland, and other Celtic lands on Ireland’s national instruments: the Irish harp, and the Irish uilleann (“elbow”) pipes. From there, na Skylark weaves these voices and others – Irish song, flutes and whistles, fiddle, and the Appalachian dulcimer – into a tapestry of sound and feeling listeners have described as “deeply touching” “authentic,” and “soul-food for my Irish heart.”An evening with Lorinda Jones, Cathy Wilde, and Jannell Canerday offers a rare chance to explore the musical soul and source of “Celtic Women” and “Riverdance” in a relaxed, warm, and truly “up-close and personal” setting.
 
Upcoming Folk School concerts include the “Folk School Junior Appalachian Music Showcase” (April 26^th) and “The Moon and you” (May 4^th).
