Scottish music in Aughnanure Castle

AUGHNANURE CASTLE in Oughterard will be filled with the sound of Scottish traditional music and song this weekend as part of the Galway Early Music Festival.

The concert, entitled Interlace & the Otherworld, takes place this Sunday at 6pm and will be performed by the group Coracle, featuring early Irish harpist Siobhán Armstrong, Glasgow bagpiper Barnaby Brown, and Scots-Gaelic singer Griogair Labhruidh. The songs and music will be drawn from Scottish highland music and poetry.

Aughnanure Castle is a 16th century tower house near Lough Corrib that was associated with the ‘Ferocious’ O’Flaherty clan.

GEM has a bus to and from the event, which can be booked with tickets. For more information and booking see www.galwayearlymusic.com
