Celebrating sixty years
Founded in 1966, Armagh Pipers Club has provided affordable traditional-music tuition to generations of children and adults. The club says its Director of Music, Eithne Vallely, had been planning an anniversary concert featuring former pupils before her death in August.
The organizers have assembled the celebration in the spirit of her plans. The concert will open with a short performance by the club’s Beginner Singers, whom Eithne affectionately called the “baby singers”.
