Concert David Munnelly Trio
1st February 2024
The Oriel Centre and Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann’s 'Aistear 2030' Series will entertain locals and visitors on evenings throughout Spring and Summertime in the historic surroundings of Dundalk Gaol.
On Friday 16th February 2024, Mick Conneely and David Munnelly are a duo that combine tradition and innovation, energy and precision in their captivating performances. They are widely regarded as two of the finest musicians in Irish traditional music today. Conneely is a master fiddle player. Munnelly is a virtuoso accordion player and a talented composer. In 2012, they released their stunning debut album ‘Tis What It Is, a collection of traditional and contemporary tunes that showcase their virtuosity, creativity and passion for the music. Together, they create a musical chemistry that is irresistible and infectious, a sound that is both exhilarating and authentic. When two masters of their craft come together and flow like two mountain streams meeting to make a mighty river, then in artistic terms, that’s about as good as it gets. A musical tornado! This is Irish traditional music at its very best. They will be joined on the night by Catroina ni Cheannabhain who will be adding depth through soulful singing from her native Connemara.
The Aistear Series forms part of the new Comhaltas Prospectus and ADMISSION is FREE.
