The Irish Traditional Music Archive (ITMA) is committed to providing free, universal access to the rich cultural tradition of Irish music, song and dance. If you’re able, we’d love for you to consider a donation. Any level of support will help us preserve and grow this tradition for future generations.
In the third Taoscadh ón Tobar programme, Doireann Ní Ghlacáin uncovers the story of fellow Dublin fiddle player Bridget Kenny, dubbed “The Queen of Irish Fiddlers” by Captain Francis O’Neill. She pays homage to Mrs. Kenny, busking on a crowded Thomas Street , just around the corner from where she once lived.
