Celebrating Irish Harp Music

Happy Saint Patrick's Day! Lá Fhéile Pádraig sona daoibh!

Join us in the Scott Room for a concert of Irish harp music, interspersed with a discussion of the history and the mythology of the harp in Ireland. The Celtic harp was a prestigious instrument in Irish history, requiring great skill and many years of practice to master the many wires. Despite the size of the triangular frame, the harp has a delicate, ethereal sound creating a haven of calm amid the hectic pace of the day.
