Altan at World Music Festival Chicago
Thursday, September 13 at 7 PM - 9 PM CDT
Irish American Heritage Center
4626 N Knox Ave, Chicago, Illinois 60630
Altan has been the premier ambassadors of traditional Irish music for more than 35 years. Originating in the northwest County Donegal, singer/fiddler Mairéad Ní Mhaonaigh founded the group with flutist Frankie Kennedy (who died in 1994). While the band has always been devoted to Gaelic language fiddle tunes, it has also embraced different sounds without sacrificing the music’s essence. These include the arrangements for its singular combination of instruments. Bouzouki player Ciarán Curran’s Greek lute fits in alongside Mhaonaigh, accordionist Máirtín Tourish and guitarists Dáithí Sproule and Mark Kelly. Altan also explored the cultural connections between Ireland and Appalachia when it recorded its 2015 disc The Widening Gyre in Nashville with such guests as Americana star Mary Chapin Carpenter. The group’s most recent recording, The Gap Of Dreams, combines time-honored Donegal reels alongside new compositions from the group, and its members’ children.
