The
Knockadoon Folk Liturgy weeks have been running now for 21 years.
In 1981 the first Folk Liturgy was held. Its purpose was to
help people who are involved in the ministry of liturgical music,
with a particular emphasis on Folk Music. The course was designed
as an experiential week, where the participants not only learn
new music but are also introduced to new instruments and participate
in the Liturgy of Morning and Evening Prayer and the Eucharist.
This
year we celebrated 21 years of the course and we were delighted
and honoured to welcome world reknowned composer David Haas
plus singer and composer Lori True present at the weeks course
as special guest directors.
As part of our celebrations we held a special anniversary concert
on Friday 23rd August, in St Mary's Dominican Church, Cork City.
The concert featured some of the musical highlights of our 21
years of liturgical music.
Plans
for 2003 will be posted here in the near future - keep checking
