Monday, May 7, 14, 21, and 28 (4 sessions). Class fee: $80 or $72 if you email the instructor Dr. Patrick O'Donnell to preregister:[email protected] Learn how the multi-talented genius, William Butler Yeats (1865-1939), employed Irish mythology as inspirational source material to spark into being the Irish Literary Renaissance from 1885-1939, to write profound mystical Irish po- etry, and to craft plays of heroic dignity. The course will broadly survey the key narrative cycles of Irish mythology highlighting such central figures as Balor of the Evil Eye, Lugh of the Long Hand, the Children of Lir, Deirdre of the Sorrows, Cuchulainn, Maeve, Finn McCool, and the Sons of Uisneach. It will then focus in on the specific mythic char- acters that illuminate the writing of Yeats.

    Fiddler Liz Carroll doesn't hide her exuberance for Irish music | Music | Kentucky.com Page 1 of 3 Kentucky.com Fiddler Liz Carroll doesn't hide her exuberance for Irish music By Walter Tunis — Contributing Music Writer Posted: 8:24am on Mar 1, 2012; Modified: 2:20pm on Mar 1, 2012 Liz Carroll says that even after 30 years, she is fascinated by the emotion of Irish music. There is an animation that surfaces when Liz Carroll is speaking that often reflects the spirited tone of her playing. She is one of today's most celebrated torchbearers of traditional Irish music (she is America-born of Irish parentage), and her fiddle music bears confidence, precision, no modest level of speed when the occasion calls for it and, above all, a bountiful sense of Celtic abandon. http://www.kentucky.com/2012/03/01/2090222/fiddler-liz-carroll-doesnt-hide.html 3/10/2012 Fiddler Liz Carroll doesn't hide her exuberance for Irish music | Music | Kentucky.com Page 2 of 3 All kinds of musical alliances have promoted and benefited from her work: from traditionally inclined alliances with Trian, String Sisters and especially two extraordinary albums with fellow fiddler John Doyle (including 2009's Grammy-nominated Double Play), and collaborations with non-Irish-inclined stars Don Henley and Yehudi Menuhin. But the very exuberance that has ignited Carroll's recordings for more than 30 years positively erupts in conversation. There is no trace of an Irish accent as she talks, but there is no mistaking the heritage that has longed fueled her music.

  • THE JOHN BYRNE BAND the John Byrne Band Is Led by Dublin Native and Philadelphia-Based John Byrne
    THE JOHN BYRNE BAND The John Byrne Band is led by Dublin native and Philadelphia-based John Byrne. Their debut album, After the Wake, was released to critical acclaim on both sides of the Atlantic in 2011. With influences ranging from Tom Waits to Planxty, John’s songwriting honors and expands upon the musical and lyrical traditions of his native and adopted homes. John and the band followed up After the Wake in early 2013 with an album of Celtic and American traditional tunes. The album, Celtic/Folk, pushed the band on to the FolkDJ Charts, reaching number 36 in May 2015. Their third release, another collection of John Byrne originals, entitled “The Immigrant and the Orphan”, was released in Sept 2015. The album, once again, draws heavily on John’s love of Americana and Celtic Folk music and with the support of DJs around the country entered the FolkDJ Charts at number 40. Critics have called it “..a powerful, deeply moving work that will stay with you long after you have heard it” (Michael Tearson-Sing Out); “The Vibe of it (The Immigrant and the Orphan) is, at once, as rough as rock and as elegant as a calm ocean..each song on this album carries an honesty, integrity and quiet passion that will draw you into its world for years to come” (Terry Roland – No Depression); “If any element of Celtic, Americana or Indie-Folk is your thing, then this album is an absolute yes” (Beehive Candy); “It’s a gorgeous, nostalgic record filled with themes of loss, hope, history and lost loves; everything that tugs at your soul and spills your blood and guts…The Immigrant and the Orphan scorches the earth and emerges tough as nails” (Jane Roser – That Music Mag) The album was released to a sold-out crowd at the storied World Café Live in Philadelphia and 2 weeks later to a sold-out crowd at the Mercantile in Dublin, Ireland.

The interviewer is myself, Jonathan Graham, and I’m interviewing Iain MacInnes. So thanks for speaking to me, Iain, today. That’s quite all right, Jonathan. It’s nice to see you. Aye, you too. So I just really want to go from the start, start at the beginning. Right. So how did you get into piping? Well, that is quite a long time ago. I actually grew up in the Far East, out in North Borneo and Brunei, so there wasn’t much piping to hear out there. Brunei at that time was a British protectorate semi-colony, my father was a Director of Education out there, but because it a British Protectorate, British Army regiments used to come through occasionally and we used to see the Gurkhas and they also had a pipe band. And I remember one year the Queen’s Own, or possibly they were still the Seaforth, this was back in the sixties, they came through, which caused great excitement because my parents were both from the Isle of Lewis, the village of Gravir on Lewis, so the Seaforth’s or Queen’s Own, probably as it was, I can’t quite remember when the Seaforth’s amalgamated to become the Queen’s Own, their pipe band came through and there were loads of people from Stornoway in Brunei at the time.
