Cork Folk Festival Gig Photos
Saturday, October 24th, 2009
Another year down, another pipers’ concert at the Spailpin for the Cork Folk Festival. But what a concert we had this year! Some familiar faces graced the stage including Dan O’Callaghan, Diarmaid Moynihan with a welcome return from Tomás O Canainn who, for me, was the highlight of the show with his piping, singing, stories, jokes and poetry! This year also saw Kevin Moore make an accomplished stage debut, the first of many appearances in the coming years here I’m sure. The variety of musicians and instruments is what made this year’s concert all the more special for me. We had uilleann pipes, Galician pipes (gaita), pan pipes, war pipes, flutes, low whistles, and guitars. In particular Anxo Lorenzo who you can see above with the Moynihans blew us away with the sweet sound of his Galician pipes. Finally, it was great to meet the wonderful piper Jimmy Morrison who kicked off the show with some fine sets. Unfortunately I don’t have any photos of him myself but I’m sure we’ll get a few in from our official photographer on the day (ahem John 
).
I recorded the gig so expect to see some mp3s posted here in the coming days.
See the photos from the show below…
First session at The Viscount
Wednesday, October 21st, 2009
We had the first session of the term in The Viscount bar in Bishopstown a few weeks ago. It turned out to be a great night as always and the new venue worked out well. We should be back there at the end of the month so keep an eye out on the upcoming events on the sidebar or add your name to the mailing list at the top right of the page to get all the latest news straight to your inbox. We hope to have a session on the last Thursday of every month but check back here for confirmation. Anyway back to the session, the picture above shows Fearghal, Kevin and John (Mitchell). John (Murphy) had the pipes …
… and low whistle on hand.
Alex brought along his Galician pipes which certainly made an impression on everybody in the bar! There’s a great big sound from these but unfortunately Alex is moving away from Cork soon so the next session will be the last one we see him at for a while.
See you at the next session!
Christmas Session in the Outpost
Wednesday, December 10th, 2008The Cork Pipers Club Christmas session is taking place tomorrow night (Thursday December 11th) in The Outpost bar on Curraheen Road in Bishopstown. This is to mark the final classes of the term so bring along your pipes. Other musicians are more than welcome so that we don’t have a plethora of pipers!
We hope to get things kicked off shortly after 9pm when the second class finishes.
