Celebrating its 11th year, the hugely popular holiday show \u201cIrish Christmas in America\u201d <\/strong>brings a fascinating performance of music, song, dance and stories of seasonal Irish traditions.<\/p>\n

Produced by Sligo fiddler Ois\u00edn Mac Diarmada, the hugely popular Irish Christmas in America show features top Irish music, song and dance in an engaging performance rich in humor and boundless energy. The 2015 tour features a new dimension with the addition of special guest singer Teresa Horgan teaming up with legendary West Kerry singer S\u00e9amus Begley, famous for his charming wit and stunning vocal prowess.<\/p>\n

This family-friendly performance features evocatively-sung Irish seasonal ballads, lively instrumental tunes and thrilling Irish dancing, while evocative photographic images provide a backdrop to some of the rich historical traditions of Ireland. Take a memorable glimpse into the enchanting spirit of Christmas, as the finest traditional artists from Ireland, bring you on a fun-filled start to the holiday season of 2015.<\/p>\n

The holiday show was first conceived in 2005 with past tours featuring such stellar guest vocalists as S\u00e9amus & M\u00e9abh Begley, Lumiere (Pauline Scanlon & Eilis Kennedy), Karan Casey, Cara Dillon, Muireann Nic Amhlaoibh, Cathie Ryan and Michael Londra. Mac Diarmada enthuses about the program as a way to bring traditional and often unknown Irish customs to the States. \u201cOne of the most heartfelt themes of Irish Christmas is emigration,\u201d says Mac Diarmada. \u201cMusic was a way that people stayed close to home.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tickets to this concert includes free admission to the museum\u2019s galleries one hour before the concert and a post-concert reception with the performers.<\/p>\n

The Dennos concert season is made possible with support from the Robert T and Ruth Haidt Trust and Osterlin Performance Endowment, the National Endowment for the Arts, a federal agency, the Michigan Council for the Arts and Cultural Affairs with media support from WNMC 90.7and TV 29&8.
