This month I unveil a banquet of rich stories slated for the third season of Irish Music Stories: instruments on the fringe of the session; Irish music links to Scottish and Cape Breton traditions; the long (global) reach of Irish music and dance; practice habits of wise and mighty trad players and dancers; the magical intersection of food, drink, and music; musical connections to the Overworld; and more!
From Boston to Brittany, Galway to Glasgow, Toronto to Tokyo, I’ll visit trad movers and shakers to explore real and metaphorical places where traditional music and dance live. Warning: contents contain trace elements of tater tots.
