Concertina Workshop with Edel Fox Jan.9th Postponed!

Edel Fox is one of the most accomplished Irish musicians of her generation. A prized pupil of Noel Hill, she made her radio debut on Clare FM’s ‘Mist – Covered Mountain’ at the tender age of seven. Edel plays music evocative of her native West Clare, with a joy and abandon that lifts the spirit.

Despite her young age, her musical resume boasts a list of accolades, she’s a regular performer on Irish National Radio and the BBC and has performed in festivals and concert halls from North America all the way to Asia. In 2004, Edel was awarded one of the highest honours for a traditional musician in Ireland – the TG4 Young Musician of the Year award.

In addition to being an engaging performer, Edel is also an insightful and patient teacher, specializing in the repertoire of her native soil. She is on staff at the prestigious Willie Clancy Summer School in her home town, Miltown Malbay, Co. Clare. She also teaches annually at festivals in the US, including the Irish Arts Week Festival in East Durham, NY. She has recently completed her studies in music at the University of Limerick and works presently in the media.
