Report here from RTE on the Inter-Celtic theme to its 2021 dawn chorus. Enthusiasts will be up from 4:00 am on Sunday (may 2nd) to beam in their renditions of ‘the birds’ from the six corners of the Celtic world.
It’s a rare treat in troubled times. Hardly Beatrice Harrison circa 1927 but you never know. Cello’s on South Barrule anyone?
