Scottish Highlands Music Students in Cultural Exchange with Donegal

As reported in the Donegal News, members of the Letterkenney music school "Ceol na Ciolle" are hosting the "Cairngorms Ceildh Trail" student music group based in the Cairgorms National Park region of the Scottish Highlands.

Paul Harrigan, founder of "Ceol na Ciolle", stated in an interview with Sean Feeny of the Donegal News: " This exchange in particular offers a unique opportunity for young Donegal Musicians to explore our close cultural links with Scotland, incorporating both the music and language elements of both groups.  All of these events offer musicians the opportunity to showcase on national and international stages."  Mr. Harrigan is a well known musician in his own right. He has been the All Ireland champion on both the Uillean Pipes and Piano Accordian and at present holds the position of "Music Tutor" at the Ceol na Ciolle Music School.
