Traditional Irish Music
Harp of Tara hosts Traditional Irish music events year-round. We invite experienced musicians and beginners alike to come join us.
Traditional Irish Music Sessions
Seisiúin Cheoil Thraidisiúnta
A session is a bunch of friends in a circle, playing tunes together. A slow session is a session for people new to their instruments, or even for experienced musicians new to the Irish repertoire. There's a limited, easy to learn repertoire, and the tunes are played at an accessible pace.
​
The slow session welcomes people of all ages, at all levels, on all instruments. We provide a music book, and cds of the tunes played slowly. It's an excellent way for beginners to see how much fun a trad session can be and also a good place for the more experienced to pick up a tune or two. The atmosphere is friendly and the tunes are wonderful.
