Ceol - The Irish Traditional Music Centre, Dublin, Ireland




Planning a trip to Dublin soon? Well, if you are into traditional Irish music or want to learn more about it, a great educational attraction has opened up in Dublin this week. It is called Ceol and is located in the Smithfield Village area in the center of Dublin. It is a center which highlights all aspects and history of traditional Irish music through educational interactive exhibits. It received some very good reviews this week on the RTE Radio One program "The Arts Show" and was spotlighted this week on another Radio One show "The Late Session". You can learn more about Ceol by visiting the Ceol web site.

You may also hear more information about Ceol by listening to the RTE Radio One programs which spotlighted the Irish traditional music centre this week. (The following files are in the RealAudio format and require at least the RealAudio 4.0 player.)

RTE Radio One - "The Arts Show" - review of Ceol (9 min.)

RTE Radio One - "The Late Session" - an in-depth spotlight on Ceol (43 min.)

No word of whether Clannad has contributed music or interviews specifically for the center, but it is likely that their music is at least mentioned. More information on this in a couple of weeks.
