Ceol Aneas - June 2007

http://www.ceolaneas.org/ Nelson, New Zealand - 1st to 4th of June
Held each year in Nelson in the South Island of New Zealand, the workshops are modelled on the Irish Summer Schools held in Miltown Malbay, Tubbercurry and Drumshambo. The workshops offer a series of master class and performance opportunities to attendees to enhance their own music practice as well as the cultural and artistic landscape of New Zealand with its strong Irish links.

Welcome to Ceol Aneas 2007

This year we have the legendary Kevin Burke of "Bothy band", "Patrick Street" and "Nightnoise" fame, Jon Sanders also from Ireland and Fred and Claire from Australian group Tulca Mor, plus a host of well known New Zealand tutors.

We invite you to 'Ceol Aneas' (music of the south) a weekend of Irish Traditional Music Workshops being held in Nelson, New Zealand between 1st and 4th June 2007.

We are delighted to offer a spectacular line up of special guests for the weekend, which will be the eighth weekend of music organised by the Celtic Flute School of New Zealand.

Our intention with these workshops is to provide tuition in traditional Irish music in an informal environment and to give participants an experience similar to that found at summer schools in Ireland.

Though Kevin Burke recorded two albums (Portland and Promenade) with Micheal O'Domhnaill, who would later found Nightnoise, I am not aware of Kevin himself ever playing with Nightnoise. Great fiddler nonetheless!
