“The Living Legacyâ€
By Mickey Dunne and Oliver O’Connell
An evening of Music, Song, Dance and Story capturing the rich tradition of Ireland’s Travelling Musicians.
Direct from Ireland, two of Ireland’s musical treasures, with guitarist John Coyne.
Oliver has written a book on the lives of traveling musicians and has recently written songs and music with a Clare
theme including a piece titled “The Michael Dunleavy Suite”
which will be performed on the night. There will also be a twelve minute video presentation. Mickey’s style of piping embodies the free-flowing traveler piping style associated with
the legendary Johnny Doran, Finbar Furey and Paddy Keenan, all of whom have provided Mickey with inspiration.
