Celtic Music Concert

Join us for a concert of Celtic music with fiddler and singer Emily Ann Thompson!

Emily Ann Thompson performs traditional Celtic fiddle tunes, sings in English and Irish Gaelic, and clogs while fiddling.  From fast, high-energy jigs and reels to captivating airs and songs, her performance is energetic and passionate.  Emily Ann’s husband Kelly joins her on guitar, percussion, and vocals. 

This program covers a wide range of Celtic music from Ireland, Scotland, and Canada, featuring reels, jigs, hornpipes, polkas, clogs, strathspeys, airs, waltzes, and songs.  Between tunes, Emily Ann explains the ornaments & nuances of Celtic music.

Emily Ann’s brilliant fiddling with foot percussion and sweet, lilting voice combined with Kelly’s driving rhythmic guitar and rich, unabashed vocals create a diverse and highly entertaining performance.

This concert will be held on Saturday, March 4th at 11:30 a.m. in the Reading Room at the library.  This event is for all ages and is free and open to the public.
