The Softer Side of Celtic
The
Gilmanton Year-Round Library is excited to be hosting an evening of:
The Softer Side of Celtic - A Musical Performance. Jeff Snow,
a talented multi-instrumentalist and engaging story teller, combines
music, stories and history to bring the rich traditions of classic
Celtic music to life. This program, free to the public, will
be performed at the library March 8th at 6 pm.
Growing
up as the son of a drummer in a Bagpipe Band and in a home where old
Celtic songs were everyday sounds, Snow developed a love for the
music of Scotland, England and Ireland. His concerts have been
described as “quiet and relaxing” and much of it is, but sometimes
he’ll break out and the foot stomping begins.
The
magical sounds from the instruments coupled with vocals and Snow’s
love and knowledge of his Scottish heritage create a delightful
program of traditional and original tunes and songs.
A
typical concert includes a guitar, bouzouki and the autoharp,
creating an entertaining venue that the audience will talk about for
a long time.
