Ar na haíonna a bheas i gcuideachta Mháirtín Tom Sheáinín anocht, beidh beirt fhonnadóirí óga, Gráinne Ní Fhátharta agus Evan Ó Gríofa, a bheadh páirteach i gCorn Uí Riada i mbliana dá mbeadh sé ann. Beidh Stiúrthóir an Oireachtais, Liam Ó Maoladha, i mbun comhrá le Máirtín ar an gclár seo freisin. Beidh amhráin ón gcartlann ann ón gcúigear fonnadóir a thug leo Corn Uí Riada ach atá anois ar shlí na fírinne – Nan Ghriallais, Nora Ghriallais, Josie Sheáin Jeaic, Ciarán Ó Con Cheannain agus Joe John Mac an Iomaire. Beidh bronnadh Ghradam RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta mar bhuaicphointe ar chlár na hoíche anocht.
Normally, tonight would be the highlight of the Oireachtas festival with the Corn Uí Riada competition, the All-Ireland for sean-nós singing, taking place. Unfortunately, that was not to be this year, but nonetheless there will be celebrations of the festival and sean-nós singing on the programme tonight, presented by Máirtín Tom Sheáinín. His guests will include young singers Gráinne Ní Fhátharta and Evan Ó Gríofa, and he’ll also be joined by Liam Ó Maoladha, Director of the Oireachtas festival. We’ll hear songs from the archives from the five winners of Corn Uí Riada who are no longer with us – Nan Ghriallais, Nóra Ghriallais, Josie Sheáin Jeaic, Ciarán Ó Con Cheannain and Joe John Mac an Iomaire. The highlight of the programme tonight will be the presentation of the Gradam RTÉ Raidió na Gaeltachta award.
