Texas Tech Celtic Ensemble Presents "Ceili in the Snow: An Irish House-Party"

"(Media-Newswire.com) - The Texas Tech Celtic Ensemble will present the concert, “Céili in the Snow: An Irish House-Party,” at 7 p.m. Jan. 30 in the Talkington Great Hall at the Legacy Event Center.

Singers and players will perform dances, songs, listening pieces and tunes associated with the Celtic experience played globally for many centuries.

Students, families and seniors are welcome to attend free of charge to enjoy solo and figure dances, instrumental music and guest appearances by the Texas Tech Irish Set-Dancers and the Caprock Border Morris Dancers.

In the Gaeltachtai ( Irish-speaking communities ) of Ireland’s West, certain houses became known as “céili ( KAY-lee ) houses.” These were places where songs, tunes, musicians, dancers, poets and players could find a warm welcome and an appreciative response in the shared community performance of the house party."
