The Concert takes place on Wednesday 4th of February 2009 at 7pm in Trinity College Chapel, Dublin. We performed the music at a more low key concert
before, but this should be great, we even have a brass group playing for Sé Lest and on a couple of the new tracks. If you're in Dublin you should
definitely come along for a great night! Thanks

I did...I'm just waiting on their reply! I'm just wondering if anyone knows if it's sold out yet, there seems to be a lot of interest on the
facebook page!

Highly enjoyable gig. Quintet Tarintino worked very well towards the end too.
Only one big criticism; they should use a better microphone, Aisling's voice was not being done justice. I'd really like to know the model, so I
can steer clear of it.

|
|
it was freaking class! I loved the stuff they did off (). Dude playing the piano stole the show.

Thanks for the support guys! The microphone Aisling used was just the one in the pulpit connected to the church's PA. The PA in there was a bit crap,
so the balance wasn't great, we couldn't use a condenser for the strings etc. But thanks for coming anyway, we raised nearly €2000 for Romania!

wow congrats! let us know if there is more in the future :) hopefully i might be back home in ireland when its on again.

Well done, I figured about 350 people were sitting.

I am sad to have missed this. Did anyone manage to record it? I would love to hear it

We have videos of Samskeyti, Staralfur, Sé Lest and Inni Mer as far as I know, I'll try to get them up on youtube sometime in the next few weeks.
