Language, Dance and Music
Classes
July 9 - Aug 30, 2002
Visiting Instructor!
Marie McLean, musician and dancer from County Down, Northern Ireland is coming
to Columbia for July and August to teach classes in music and dance. Marie has
toured as a professional musician with the Gaelforce Dance Company, a music
and dance production that followed in the footsteps of Riverdance; toured
Europe with,"Divil the Bit" and played in the
winning All-Ireland champion Grupai Cheoil band.
She plays the Uilleann pipes (Irish bagpipes) and tin
whistles and has taught music extensively. She learned to play music by ear as
a child and completed a music degree in college. In the fall she returns
to college to pursuit a degree in education with the intention of teaching
primary school.
This is a great opportunity to learn Irish music from a
"source player" -- someone who has grown up immersed in the
wellspring of traditional music.
