‘Friends of the Harp’
Fáilte
Welcome to the Cairde Na Cruite - Friends of the Harp official website.
You will find a host of information here about our society including regular updates about our internationally acclaimed Harp festival and Summer school for Irish harp.
Arrangements for An Chúirt Chruitireachta, the 2008 Irish harp festival, are well under way. There is much demand for places so book now to avoid disappointment.
We accept harpers of all standards from absolute beginners to advanced players. It is a perfect opportunity to become immersed in all aspects of traditional music for Irish harp – from the ancient harpers’ tunes to songs and slow airs to jigs and reels. We have an exciting line-up of workshops and concerts planned for our 2008 festival. So join us and have the experience of a lifetime at An Grianán, Termonfeckin, Co. Louth.
Fáilte roimh chách. Más tosaitheoir thú nó más cruitire oilte thú, bí linn agus bain taitneamh as sár mhúineadh agus sár cheol ó chruitirí den scoth.
There are a variety of ways to book and all information can be found here.
