A new collection of traditional songs

• Sep 07,2016

A new collection of traditional songs for young singers has just been published, entitled "The Next Generation- Traditional Songs for Young Singers". Supported by Comhaltas and the Arts Council, the book and CD consist of 16 slow and lively traditional songs suitable for young traditional song enthusiasts.
While the collection is not solely aimed at competitors, all songs are suitable for Fleadh Cheoil competitions. There continues to be a slight misunderstanding among some young singers as to what constitutes an appropriate "Fleadh song". It is hoped that the songbook will lead competitors on the right path of song selection.
Overall, the aim of the publication is to encourage our young people to explore and learn traditional songs and carry on the tradition into "The Next Generation".
The book is the perfect resource for teachers and parents. It is also a great source of songs for Comhaltas branches who may not hold singing classes but may like to include some songs in their concerts, recitals or Seisiún shows etc.
For more information or to purchase the collection, please do not hesitate to message me here on facebook or phone 085- 7849716.
