Enjoy a concert of Irish harp and flatpicking guitar in the sweet community room at Rebop Farm! This award-winning virtuoso partnership of "one of the UK's greatest guitarists" (BBC Radio 2) with "the doyenne of Irish harpers" (Scotland on Sunday) has toured in twenty-three countries to venues ranging from the tiniest of village halls and historic European churches to palaces in Kyoto and Istanbul. They've been described as "the high-wire act in traditional music" (The Irish Times). Máire Ní Chathasaigh (Pr. "Moira Nee HA-ha-sig") may well be the most influential, interesting, and original player of the Irish harp; she also composes, sings, and plays tin whistle and piano. Chris Newman is one of the UK's finest flatpicking guitarists; he is also a prolific composer, arranger, and humorist. Together, they perform a breathtaking blend of traditional Irish music, hot jazz, bluegrass, and baroque, along with striking new compositions and subversive humor.
