Craobh Mhaigh Nuad is a young branch of Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann located in Maynooth, having been formed in Autumn 2012. Our goal is to bring traditional Irish music, song and dance into as many homes as possible in the North-Kildare area. The branch is now growing quickly and is already providing music tuition across a wide range of instruments for both children and adults. The profile of the Craobh was hugely enhanced by the hosting of Fleadh Laighean / Leinster Fleadh July 2014 in Maynooth, which, by all accounts, was a resounding success for traditional music fans and the wider community. This was followed by successful terms from 2015 through 2019. We have regular social activities outside of our tuition including regular sessions for our teachers, pupils and all music lovers in the area. These sessions give musicians the opportunity to play with others of all levels of ability and to experience playing tunes together with other instruments. All are welcome - both branch members and non-members. Keep an eye on twitter (http://twitter.com/CCEMhaighNuad) and Facebook (http://www.facebook.com/CCEMhaighNuad) for times and updates. Lessons are now kicking off for the new term from the beginning of September, so looking forward to a great year!
