Killorglin CCE Notes
Killorglin Comhaltas held their first fundraising concert on Sunday 29th
March in the CYMS. It proved to be a great success. For many
performers, it was their first time performing in front of an audience
and they did a fantastic job. The concert opened with an energetic
selection of tunes from the Dromavalla Céilà Band. The audience was
entertaine...d with music from Spraoi, Tóg go Bog é,
Sult, Glór, DrÃodar, Castleconway Céilà Band, Siamsa, Gliondar,
Tinteáin, Sonas and Preab san Aer. The Brush Dance and Sliabh Luachra
Set were performed by our young dancers while our adult set danced 2
figures of the Cashel Set. The concert would not have been possible
without the dedicated hard-working event committee. A special thanks to
Deirdre Keane, RóisÃn Looney, Ireneus Looney, Orna Eccles, Donal Mangan,
Bridie Kingston, Maria Ward, Elaine Crowley & Mary O' Sullivan.
