As part of Ballina Arts Centre’s summer camp programme this year, there will be a music summer camp with the acclaimed WhistleBlast Quartet. Running from Monday, July 30 to Friday, August 3, the camp is open to children with or without musical ability. Children will have an opportunity to explore many musical concepts including composition, performance, and listening – all with an emphasis on fun and confidence-building.

The WhistleBlast Quartet – Kenneth Edge (saxophones and clarinet), Mary Curran (French horn), Andrew Synnott (piano) and Nicola Cleary (regular violinist with the National Symphony Orchestra) – will be hosting a great new music summer school for children aged seven to nine and 10 to 13 years, with or without previous musical experience or ability. The school will run from July 30 to August 3 and costs €85 per child or €75 if there are two or more. For seven to nine-year-olds it will run from 10am to 1pm, and for 10 to 13-year-olds it will run from 2pm to 5pm.

The Tuam-based Linda Martyn School of Irish Dancing opened a little over two years ago. It is a relatively new school but has achieved a lot in such a short space of time, mostly due to the dedication of Linda Martyn herself.
