Cuirfidh an choirm seo anocht tús leis an gcraoladh beo ó Scoil Samhraidh Willie Clancy ar RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta i mbliana.  Neansaí Ní Choisdealbha a chuirfidh an choirm i láthair, a dhéanfaidh ceiliúradh ar cheol traidisiúnta na hÉireann agus na hAlban, agus an gaol atá idir an dá thraidisiún.  Ar chuid de na ceoltóirí a bheidh ar stáitse, beidh Charlie Harris, Eamon agus Geraldine Cotter, Murdo MacDonald, Allan MacDonald, Maighread Stiùbhart agus ceoltóirí óga as iarthar agus as oirthear an Chláir.  I mbliana, beidh Trio Touldrouzig as an Bhriotáin páirteach sa choirm freisin, agus dár ndóigh beidh The Lisseycasey Set Dancers chomh maith.

This concert marks the beginning of the RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta live coverage from the Willie Clancy Summer School in Miltown Malbay, Co. Clare this year.  Neansaí Ní Choisdealbha will present the event, celebrating the traditional music of Ireland and Scotland, and the relationship between the two traditions.  Musicians on stage will include Charlie Harris, Eamon and Geraldine Cotter, Murdo MacDonald, Allan MacDonald, Maighread Stiùbhart and young musicians from East and West Clare.  This year, the lineup also includes Breton musicians Trio Touldrouzig, and of course the Lisseycasey Set Dancers will also bring their artistry to the stage.
