CELTIC CROSSROADS
From the shores of Galway to venues across America, this inventive ensemble of Celtic-rooted performers seeks to do to Irish music what Riverdance has done to Irish dance.
This one-of-a-kind performance event, featuring some of the Irish music world's finest musicians and dancers, is redefining the Celtic sound by focusing on rhythmic boldness and an eclectic array of song styles.
Celtic Crossroads commands a veritable smorgasbord of genres at their deft fingertips: Eastern European gypsy, North American bluegrass, classical, and jazz are all represented in a typical show.
Bodhrán, banjo, mandolin, accordion, mandola, and bouzouki are just a few of the instruments played by the classically trained musicians of the band.
"Seven musicians, each of them proficient on numerous instruments, just play and sing. Sure, they dance, and sure, they move around a lot; it's a high energy concert. But with Celtic Crossroads, the music is what it's all about.—Bill DeYoung of Connect Savannah
Cost: 27.00
