To tell the history of the Irish harp is to tell the history of its people. The harp has always stood as an integral part of its culture. It is the official national symbol of Ireland, often appearing on the flag, and appears on the back of all Irish coins.
It was the instrument of the Bards. It became important because it was used to accompany the recitation or the singing of stories and thus to preserve the oral history.
The Dagda, one of the old Irish gods, is often depicted with a harp. Irish bards were supposed to be able to play three different types of tunes with magical properties on the harp – tunes that would move their listeners to tears, laughter, or sleep.
Aubree Shelley, TCRG, recognizes the power of dance as a natural storyteller and form of expression. Your child will learn how to communicate to their audiences, and tell the story of Irish Culture through dancing.
