Description
Wear your green (or your plaid) and celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with some Irish music. Listen to a concert of haunting airs, music with roots in the Celtic heart of the British Isles, jigs, reels, and sing-alongs! Husband and wife duo, Scott and Irma Reeder, are accomplished singers, and play many instruments, including those they’ll be sharing today: Celtic harp, mountain and hammered dulcimers, guitars, bowed psaltery, Irish whistles, Renaissance recorders, and bodhrán (Irish frame drum).
Irma and Scott Reeder have each performed with numerous chorales, bands, and ensembles. Irma has performed with light opera and opera companies and has directed instrumental and choral music since she was a teen. She is the current Oasis Show Tunes Chorus Director. Together they have won many awards and their albums have listeners in 89 countries on six continents. They are past directors of the Albuquerque Folk Festival, co-founded the New Mexico Dulcimer Festival, perform in various venues, and teach a number of instruments.
