Bodhrán Workshop with Tommy Lanigan

In association with Kilkenny Tradfest

Join one of the country’s finest bodhrán players for a crash course on the ins and outs of our ancient, beloved national drum. Tommy Lanigan is a true legend of the traditional music scene both in Kilkenny and indeed across Ireland and beyond. A sought-after accompanist and bodhrán maestro for trad sessions, Tommy will take a break from the trad trail this St.Patrick’s Weekend, to share his rhythmic secrets with a lucky few. And where better to explore this ancient instrument than in the beautiful, historic setting of Rothe House.

This workshop is suitable for beginners and intermediate. Attendees must bring their own Bodhrán.
