In case some of you missed my previous post, something big is happening in Cape Breton ,Nova Scotia .Celtic Colors International Festival is being launched.

It is a musical event representing the Celtic spirit. This is a note from Dan Coffin. I am posting it here so that we will know what is really happening :

Thanks for the post. Much appreciated when i see things like this going on on-line. I wanted to write to tell you that the Festival Line-up will be launched on Monday June 22nd, and ticket will be available July 6th.
We are also launching some new tools in the social media game to try to reach more people and groups that have a shared interest in Celtic Music. On Monday we will unveil a facebook fan page, twitter account, flicker photos, and an eNewsletter! Check back at the website for these links, and to be included in the newsletter distribution.

If Dublin, Ireland is your distination this week, then you might want to add this to your list of directories. DUBLINLINKS.COM offers a wide variety of places to go to. There is Dublin by day which showcases the best shops around; Dublin by night offers places to go to especially if you are looking for musical perfomance. You can check out who’s in town . Mostly it’s pop acts like Pink and Shayne Ward. But then again there’s this section for traditional music that you would really love.

The Welsh Triple Harp

Wow talk about a bunch of strings! This instrument is not your typical Celtic harp because:

The Welsh triple harp (telyn deires) is a type of harp using three rows of strings instead of the common single row. The Welsh triple harp today is found mainly among players of traditional Welsh folk music.

The sound is beautiful as any Harp sound can get. It has a deeper quality than most Celtic harps because of its bigger size.

For a harp maker’s site you can find it here

Watch and listen  how it is being played here

I also want to share some tips and maybe gossips but my main concern would be about music.I like to read a lot and I will be visiting blogs.I am here for the layout since I have other blogs.But if I like this whole thing so much then I might totally switch residence.
