The Wexford Carols – Concerts in Drogheda & NCH Dublin

Traditional Irish singer/early music specialist Caitríona O’Leary and her band DÚLRA along with special guest artists Lillis Ó Laoire, Nóirín Ní Riain and Matthias Loibner will perform a special holiday season concert featuring Ireland’s greatest Christmas music, The Wexford Carols.

These remarkable folk carols from the 17th and 18th centuries are rarely performed and largely unknown to the public. Over the years the music for many of the carols has been lost. For these concerts Ms. O’Leary has unearthed and reconstructed several of the carols giving listeners the opportunity to hear – perhaps for the first time in centuries – a large selection of these beautiful and historically important works. The Wexford Carols is being supported by a Deis Award for Traditional Arts from the Arts Council.
