Northern Gael, a Celtic music group performing a free program of Irish and Scottish music, will make its way to the International Falls Public Library at 1 p.m. tomorrow.
Brought to the area by the Arrowhead Library System, Northern Gael weaves together the vibrant traditions of Ireland and Scotland. This trio performs a variety of music from ballads to vigorous sets of dance tunes. Northern Gael presents a lively program of an authentic Celtic repertoire.
According to a news release, Northern Gael is composed of three musicians: Ross Sutter, voice, guitar, bodhrán, button accordion; and Laura MacKenzie, wooden flutes, whistles, concertina, various bagpipes, and voice, who performed together for many years as Ross & MacKenzie. They are now joined by fiddler/step dancer Danielle Enblom, and perform as Northern Gael.
Northern Gael will perform at regional libraries celebrating the culture, poetry, and music of Scotland and Ireland.
This program, sponsored by Arrowhead Library System, is funded in part or in whole with money from Minnesota’s Arts and Cultural Heritage Fund.
