Unfortunately, Mr. Munelly passed recently. However, the Clare Festival of Traditional Singing (November 9-11, 2007) seems to be going forward. We've been to Clare in November, and it's empty of tourists. Bellbridge House Hotel Spanish Point, Co. Clare Contact: Tom Munelly Phone: 65 7084365 Email: munelly@eircom.net Founded in 1990 the Clare Festival of Traditional Singing promotes an interest in unaccompanied traditional singing with lectures, concerts, recitals and a multitude of informal sessions. The Festival also provides formal performances by the finest traditional singers from throughout the country. It is rightly regarded as the premier non-competitive Irish and English language singing event in Ireland.
