(http•••) (http•••) (http•••) (http•••) Máire Ní Chathasaigh is Ireland's most influential harper. As a teenager in Co Cork in the early 1970s she invented an entirely new style that quickly became the norm amongst both her contemporaries and the younger generation of harpers. A multiple All-Ireland and Pan-Celtic winner, in 1985 she recorded the very first harp album to concentrate on traditional Irish dance music, The New-Strung Harp - "a mile-stone in Irish harp music" (The Irish Examiner ). In 2001 she received Irish music's most prestigious award, that of Traditional Musician of the Year - Gradam Cheoil TG4 - "for the excellence and pioneering force of her music, the remarkable growth she has brought to the music of the harp and for the positive influence she has had on the young generation of harpers". Chris Newman (guitar/ mandolin) Chris Newman's virtuosity and creativity are "dazzling" (Acoustic Guitar) and "revered" (Taplas). His solo CD Fretwork was "a stunning and stylistically-varied album, heaving with good tunes, from one of the UK 's most staggering and influential acoustic guitarists" (Folk Roots). He's produced many successful albums for other artists and has been principal guitar tutor for Newcastle University 's Folk B.Mus. course since its inception in 2001. He and Máire have toured worldwide since 1988. Nollaig Casey (fiddle/ vocal) Máire's sister Nollaig's powerful presence has graced two of Ireland 's most ground-breaking bands, Planxty and Coolfin. She made her Carnegie Hall début in 2006 as soloist in a double concerto for classical violin and traditional fiddle by Evan Chambers. She's toured the world with the hit show Riverdance and performed at the 2003 Special Olympics Opening Ceremony. A soloist in over 20 feature films, she's recorded with Enya, Van Morrison, Sinéad O'Connor, Nanci Griffith, Ricky Skaggs, Rod Stewart, Emmylou Harris, Steve Earle, Mary Black, Carlos Nuñez, Jim Rooney, Andy Irvine , Moving Hearts, Elvis Costello, Christy Moore, Liam O'Flynn, Dan ar Braz, Shaun Davey and Sharon Shannon. Her solo album featured "exquisite fiddle-playing and superb vocals" (The Irish Times) and she's recorded two duo albums with Arty. Arty McGlynn, from Co. Tyrone, is one of the best-known musicians in Ireland. Touring professionally from the age of fifteen, his playing soon came under the influence of Wes Montgomery and Thelonius Monk. He later revived his interest in Irish traditional music and in 1979 recorded McGlynn's Fancy, the first recording of the guitar played in an authentic traditional style and a classic of the traditional music world. He's played and recorded with Christy Moore, Paul Brady, John Prine, Tim O'Brien, Jim Rooney, Jerry Douglas, Dónal Lunny, Liam O'Flynn, The Chieftains and countless others. He was a member of Planxty, Patrick Street and De Danann and lead guitarist in the Van Morrison Band for many years. He's also a chart-topping record producer. "Arty invented a role for the guitar in the Irish tradition and continues to dominate his field" (The Ulster Herald) ABOUT THE FESTIVAL: The opening night, of the long running Festival was on Thursday September 13th 1979 at Douglas GAA Club; (there was no Festival in 1988) Put together from year to year purely on a voluntary basis by a dedicated group of enthusiasts, aided by major sponsorship, and a combination of various sponsors and supporters, including those who over the years contribute financially to the cost of staging the festival, Cork City Council, the Arts Council, Fáilte Ireland, Carling, Beamish Irish Stout and CIT, and the Evening Echo etc. It's endurance is a tribute to the energy and labour of it's workers. it is appropriate to acknowledge the voluntary organising committee, and also the many volunteer workers who take charge of doors, organise artist accommodation, look after publicity, liaise with artists, and numerous other things involved in making such an event possible year on year. Particular recognition for Jim Walsh, Chairman and someone who has been a vital cog in Festival organisation since that very first year, long-serving Festival Director William "Hammy" Hammond, and also Timmy "the Brit" McCarthy, the inspirational figure behind the Festival's inception, as well as it's original Director/Secretary.
