Thread Name: How much Folk Music is there?
Subject: RE: How much Folk Music is there?
Glor na nGael is a government-funded programme to support the Irish language. It may as I said do this in a number of ways - but it is a programme to support the Irish language. That's what it says on its website and I believe it. It does it by having a series of local committees.

If you say you judged music competitions I believe you did so - but they were local music competitions designed by local committees to raise money in all probability, or to raise the profile of the Irish language.

Why not offer them your £200.00? I am sure they would appreciate it and the EFDSS might then see what they missed.
