A revisit to Dunguaire Castle, 27 years after performing there, brings back memories of the many banquets and shows.
Then the chance rediscovery of an old videotape recording of an October 1996 show gives the opportunity to relive it in all it’s 1990s low resolution VHS glory.
On stage that night with Veronica O’Keefe and Jane Hockedy and accompanied on harp by the lovely Lady Aiveen Anderson, who has sadly now passed away.
I loved putting this together, what a great, varied and quirky show Dunguaire was.
Here is a link to the harp performance used on the intro and outdo of O’Carolan’s Farewell to Music by Ciara Taaffe
