To experience regional styles, one could do a good deal worse than attending the Willie Clancy Summer School where, in fact, one of the classes, 'The Scope of Irish Music', very ably run for a number of years by Paddy Glackin and Cathal Goan, places very great emphasis on this subject. Together with the large number of tutors and other musicians who have their own local styles e.g. Paddy Glackin, Brendan Begley, Maire O'Keefe, Jackie Daly, Peter O'Loughlin, Mary McNamara, Martin Hayes, the McPeake Family, Mairead Ni Mhaonaigh, Len Graham, Mairead Ni Domhnaill and far, far too many more to mention, a great deal can be learnt in just one week!
