A sublime family concert with multi-award winning quintet Goitse.
Goitse will also be joined by young musicians from Music Generation who have been working with composer, singer & fiddle player Áine McGeeney on a new suite of music to be premiered at Tradoodle Festival.
Lullaby Leaf is a captivating, fun-filled, and immersive theatre experience created by Ceol Connected, for young children with Down Syndrome and their guardian/carer.
What is it like to live on a giant leaf?
Prepare for whooshing winds, gigantic raindrops, busy bugs, and bursts of colourful canopy in this joyful multi-sensory performance. With the gentle unfurling of a leaf, a soothing sensory world is brought to life through music and song, light, smell, movement, and touch.
Supported by Creative Ireland regions Monaghan, Cavan, Louth & Meath, Music Generation Cavan/Monaghan, Baboró International Arts Festival for Children (with support from Bank of Ireland Begin Together Arts Fund).
