Kilbeggan Library<\/strong> hosted an evening of delightful folk music and ballads on Thursday 20th<\/sup> October, courtesy of Aine O\u2019Regan and Declan Keenaghan. An audience gathered to listen to \u2018Fiddler\u2019s Green,\u2019 \u2018How Many Roads\u2019 and many other much-loved songs. Declan\u2019s fine voice and his guitar and harmonica, and Aine\u2019s very accomplished command of the fiddle, created a warm and calm atmosphere in the library for the evening.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had the pleasure of local multi-instrumentalists Niall Mannion and Andrew Yau performing hits from the movies in Moate Library<\/strong> on the 6th<\/sup> October. They began with some classical pieces on the piano, flute and violin and continued with some more modern pieces such as Harry Potter, Disney and Lord of the Rings. They had a composition to cater for all age groups. We had a packed house with both performers receiving a well-deserved standing ovation.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
