Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann is the largest group involved in the preservation and promotion of Irish traditional music. They are a non-profit cultural movement with hundreds of local branches around the world, and they’ve been working for the cause of Irish music since the middle of the last century (1951 to be precise). Their efforts continue with increasing zeal as the movement launches itself into the 21st century.
The Comhaltas movement is organised into local branches, where most activities and classes take place. Branches are organised into regions (counties, in Ireland), and regions into provinces. Comhaltas Regional Resource Centres also provide additional services and facilities in their areas.
Craobh Osraí Marble City Branch of Comhaltas in Kilkenny was formed in 1987. Music classes for all ages and levels are thought through the winter months in a fantastic array of instruments. Follow their Facebook Page @OsraiComhaltas to stay informed on all activities including concerts and session happening in the County of Kilkenny that has involvement from Craobh Osraí Marble City Branch of Comhaltas in Kilkenny.
