Gaelic Spirit offers a snapshot of the changing face of Irish music. The songs offer a unique perspective on the creativity and sheer talent in play in Ireland, embracing a range of influences from the blues and country, solo and ensemble, acoustic and electric, classical and contemporary, Gaelic and English which all combine in a musical exploration across idioms and traditions.

Introduced by Donal Lunny, one of the country’s most influential musicians and record producers, the program features performances recorded at the Music Center in Dublin’s Temple Bar.
