Heritage Sunday/Tara.


Heritage Sunday.
Arriving late in Tara last Sunday I caught the end of what must have been an interesting afternoon. But Meath were playing in Croke Park!
Anyway it was all free and as of yet I've seen no report of it in any of the local papers.
I arrived just in time to catch Laoise Kelly playing what I believe was "Planxty Wilkinson" on the harp. (Michael Farry's site for info) followed by Michael Longley reciting some of his poems ending with "CeaseFire". But what was most enjoyable was the duet between Susan McKeown and daughter supported by Aidan Brennan on guitar and Laoise Kelly on harp. Gold is where you find it! Hope I got my facts right.
