Transcription

Fáilte go Féile na Bealtaine 2016, féile a thugann
guth do spiorad na leithinse!
Féile is going from strength to strength! Tar éis
Gradham Chomhphobail Chiarraí a bhuachaint
an bhliain seo chaite, bhí Féile na Bealtaine
roghnaithe don Tionscadal Tosta i mbliana.
The European Capital of Culture, Donastia/San
Sebastian, has selected Féile na Bealtaine as
its outpost in Ireland this year. If you’ve been
to arts festivals elsewhere you’ll know why
Féile na Bealtaine was chosen! We benefit from
mass participation rarely seen in the world of
the arts. The whole community gets stuck in,
an awful lot of people give generously, and
an awful lot of people (often the same ones)
benefit from it.

The powerful voice behind Rudimentals
brilliant track We The Generation. Signed to
Asylum Records (Ed Sheeran, Rudimental
and Charli XCX) and aged only 17. Already
turning heads this year, not least by
her star appearance at Other Voices

Amy Winehouse. An incredible musician in
her own right, she's been hosting her own
"Mahalia Presents .." nights in Leicester
over the past few years. This year sees
her take centre stage with her own EP and
is currently working on her debut album
with producers 1985 (Drake, Nicki Minaj),
Supa Dups (Bruno Mars, Mary J Blige) and
Steve Fitzmaurice (Sam Smith, Aloe Blacc)
amongst others.
As Leicester do Mahalia atá ar dhuine de na
hamhránaithe is úire atá tágtha chun cinn i
saol an cheoil le déanaí agus glór láidir álainn
aici. Tá Mahalia tiomanta le dul chun cinn a
dhéanamh ina seánra féin; lena guth binn órga
agus cur chuige nuálach, tugann sí beocht úr
dá cuid amhrán. Tagann Mahalia go dtí an

Based in Dublin Le Galaxie have spent the past five years claiming their title as one of Ireland’s
best live bands. Festival and dancefloor favourites, the four-piece electronic group have an
exponentially growing fanbase behind them and their songwriting and performance chops
promising an even better future in front of them. Le Galaxie finished 2015 with a sold out Irish
tour, a packed crowd at the debut Metropolis festival, and a sell out performance on Stephen’s
Green for New Year’s Eve. Their most recent release, Le Club (Universal Music Ireland), which
boasts hits such as “Love System” and “Put The Chain On”, earned them a well-deserved 2016
Choice Music Prize nomination for Album of the Year. Le Galaxie have spent the early half of
2016 working on new music before bringing their dancefloor anthems and infectiously fun
atmosphere around European festivals this summer.

Tháinig Saint Sister le chéile i mí na Samhna annuraidh agus tá siad ag meascadh traidisiún na
gclairseach le seánra an folk agus seánra pop leictronach lena chéile ó shin ina slí speisialta féin, ní
bhféadfaí aon rud eile a thabhairt air ach “atmosfolk”
Saint Sister, formed in November 2014, is the new project from Morgan MacIntyre and Gemma
Doherty. Their music draws from early Celtic harp traditions, '60s folk and electronic pop to
create ‘atmosfolk'—a mix of soulful vocal harmonies, dreamy synth and electro-acoustic harp.
Following their debut performance on Irish television, they opened for Arcade Fire’s Will Butler in
Whelan’s. April saw them support San Fermin, and tour Ireland with Dublin band Spies. In August,
the band entered the studio for the first time to record their debut EP with Alex Ryan (bassist with
4 Hozier), which was released on November 13th on Trout Records.

Lisa has a remarkable
voice; a Cavan twang,
a growl, a song-call.
She needed to
make an album
about that voice.
Potholes in the
Sky is a recording
of “the voice”. The
Voice is everything
for the folk singer – a
conduit for the words,
the emotion, the thought
process. And if you ever felt
a record needed to be made
of an artist’s voice, about her
voice, so beautifully focused on,
centred on, honed-in, on and in love
with the voice, then this, is the record.

Formed under the midnight sun in Lofoten in
2006, the Engegård Quartet has rapidly become
one of Norway’s most sought after ensembles.
Their bold, fresh interpretations of the classical
repertoire combined with a deep attachment
to their Scandinavian roots has attracted
international acclaim, and inspired some
innovative partnerships and programming. The
quartet’s debut CD was praised as ‘breath-taking’
in The Strad, while their second release won

Brendan Begley and Mike Hanrahan have created a show, which tells a story of Ireland’s 1916
rising through songs, music, poetry and stories of the era spanning 1890 to 1916.
Ní stairithe, éinne againe ach beirt ceoltoirí, amhránaithe agus scribhnóirí a chuir suim sa tréimhse seo
dá’r stair agus go bhfuil leabharlann bheag léighte againn i dtaobh na bhfearaibh is na mná fé leith
seo, alán acu scríbhnóirí, ceoltóirí, amhránaithe, rínceóirí, ealaiontóirí, filí, agus go háirithe dream go
raibh fís acu.
We find songs so familiar to generations of Irish people and shine an extra light on their
significance. Songs such as Oro se de Bheatha abhaile, The Tri coloured Ribbon, A Nation once
again, James Connolly and A Soldiers Song which would eventually be translated to Irish and
become our National Anthem.
Bhí Éirinn ag an am, ina tír go raibh suim as an nua á chur sa Ghaeilge, sa cheol, amhránaiocht,
ealaion, stair agus béaloideas aici ,agus ímpireacht na Breatainne brúite anuas go daingean uirti
agus ina coinne. I gCáisc na blaina 1916, bhí Baile Átha Cliath trí thine, tine fonn na saoirse, scrios,

Maureen Freely On Being Orhan's Double
Luan/Monday 2pm

The Turkish Nobel laureate Orhan Pamuk has written beautifully about the perils of imagining
oneself into someone else's mind. But as his translator, it was Maureen Freely's job to do just that.
This difficult business was further complicated when Orhan Pamuk was prosecuted for insulting
Turkishness, and his translator took it upon herself to campaign on his behalf in the western
media. What effect did all this have on their relationship, and their
writing? Maureen Freely is an author, a journalist, a translator, and
the Head of the Department of English and Comparative Literary
Studies at the University of Warwick. She is perhaps best known
as the translator of five books the Turkish Nobel Laureate Orhan
Pamuk. Her own seventh novel, Sailing through Byzantium, was
named as one of the best novels of 2013 in both the TLS and the
Sunday Times. A fellow of the Royal Society of Literature, and
formerly chair of the Translators Association, she is currently the
President of English PEN.

Seó Aonair dhátheangach le Diarmuid de Faoite. Stiúrtha ag Paul Brennan.Buaiteoir Gradam
Stewart Parker / BBC NI
Don chéad uair le trí bhliana déag anuas, filleann Diarmuid de Faoite ar ‘Phádraic Ó Conaire’ mar chuid
dá chomóradh pearsanta ar 1916. Nochtann sé údar ‘Seacht mBua an Éirí Amach’ dúinn, a shaol agus
a shaothar … an greann, an grá, an brón agus an briseadh, bainfidh ‘Pádraic Ó Conaire’ deora gháirí
agus ghoil asat.
Diarmuid de Faoite brings his multiaward winning, epic panorama on the life and times of writer
Pádraic Ó Conaire to the stage. Described by the Irish Times as a “mesmerising one man show,”
‘Pádraic Ó Conaire’ is peopled with over thirty characters, including theatrical genius Mícheál
mac Liammóir, poet Austin Clarke, short story writer Liam Ó Flaherty and revolutionaries Michael
Collins and Éamonn de Valera, all of whom offer hilarious and sometimes tragic accounts of their
escapades with Ó Conaire through the rebellion, the troubled birth of the Irish Free State and
beyond. This bilingual biography of the father of the modern Irish short story is accessible to both
English and Irish speakers alike.
An English synopsis of passages in Irish will be available to all, so no excuses!

After a lifetime of wrestling with the tides,
fisherman Bobeen finds it hard to face the sea
again. But the discovery he made in the mouth
of the harbour almost thirty years ago keeps
calling him back. This time it will connect him to
what he thought was lost and gone forever.
After Sarah Miles follows Bobeen’s journey
from 1969 to the present day; from the
moment he has his first drink as a fourteen
year old boy on the set of Ryan’s Daughter, to
a blossoming crush which takes his life in an
entirely new direction. Mick Mulcahy gives a towering performance in this acclaimed play, transporting
the audience into a world that is at the same time ordinary and epic.

Sense of place has shaped the Irish literary imagination from earliest times, the film exhibits
some of the cultural riches rather than the wealth which has been created by this imagination
through six Irish poets. Fís na Fuiseoige, directed by Dingle’s own Aodh Ó Coileáin, is a heady
blend of heart and head, celebration of place in poetry is traced from pagan Ireland through to
modern times. Filmed in a year’s turning, much of the landscape is seen from the air: West Kerry,
the Iveragh Peninsula, Killarney, Wicklow, Cork, Belfast, Connemara, the Donegal Gaeltacht. One
hundred years after the Easter Rising, Fís na Fuiseoige affirms the Irish connection to the land
and how this has informed our sensibility, sense of self and imagination.

ambitions of becoming a comedian. Throughout
the piece she regales the audience with various
occurrences from her life, tries out
her comedic material on them and
ponders aloud. Fear, romance and
identity are frontline themes in this
piece.
"Fruit and vegetables everywhere.
This is a typical day for Laur. But
she wants more, not more fruit
and veg now, mind you. She's got a
dream. And she's got a philosophy
too – Life; Full of questions. They’re
not always easy to answer. So while
