CELTIC/IRISH MUSIC REFRESHING!

     Last night (8-5-2016) I drove to Iowa City an attended the Summer Music Series at the Ped Mall. The group was the Beggarmen, an Irish musical quartet. The instruments were an Irish drum, flutes, fiddle, pipes, and guitar. 

      The music was light and very refreshing from a lo of he music heard today. What was also a very pleasant surprise was one young lady in particular, who was maybe 8 years old, and a student of a local Irish Dance Studio, came up in front of the stage and did several minutes of the Jig to back-up dance tunes by Beggermen. The crowd loved her. What a pleasant evening!
