Traditional Irish Singing
with Mai Hernon

Wednesday, March 12 | 7 pm – 9:30 pm

"There is a lovely mellow warm quality to her singing that brings new life to the older songs. Her interpretation...is a revelation." - Irish Music Magazine

If you ever wanted to sing a traditional Irish song, but felt you did not have the right material, the right confidence, or the right technique...this class is for you!

Celebrated traditional singer Mai Hernon from Sligo has released three critically acclaimed albums and has taught singing for over 20 years, conducting classes throughout Ireland, the U.S., and at England’s Bath Folk Festival. Mai will conduct a special master class at IAC focusing on the air and the lyrics of songs from different areas of Ireland, the physical aspects of singing such as ornamentation, phrasing, and projection, as well as the origins, history, meaning, and significance of the songs.

All levels of singing experience are welcome—from beginners exploring this genre, to accomplished singers looking to polish their skills or rekindle their love of trad singing.
