From the Willie Clancy Summer School programme:

"Dúchas an Cheoil: The Scope of Irish Music
A week-long introduction to the Irish musical tradition at the library, St Joseph's Secondary School, Spanish Point. Masters of the instrumental, dancing and singing (Irish and English) traditions will demonstrate and discuss their crafts with students. Paddy Glackin, renowned traditional fiddle player, and Cathal Goan, an authority on traditional singing, will conduct this course."

I attended this course two years running and found it very rewarding (no two years are ever the same owing to the varied input from different students each year)! Not only as an introduction for people just setting out on the journey of the folk music experience, but to those of us who may have been involved in the subject for a number of years, I would say this class would be one of the best weeks ever spent in your life!
