Gaelic Power Comas at EOH Saturday night
EARLVILLE – The Earlville Opera House presents the Celtic music of Comas on Saturday at 8 p.m. When you hear Comas you’ll know that their name was no accident, translating from Irish/ Gaelic as POWER. “And power is exactly what this band is about. Depicting their own driving power coupled with a fine sensitivity for the inner strands of magic that is inherent in Irish music.” NBT Bank generously sponsors this performance.
“Comas, one of Europe’s most sensational Celtic bands, brings together four of the most exciting musicians of their generation.” (The Irish Post) Ireland’s Aiden Burke came up in the music and dance of Ireland from an early age. Perhaps destined for the fiddle, having Kevin Burke (of Patrick Street, Bothy Band) as his cousin, he has won twenty All-Ireland championships on fiddle.
The mastery of multi-instrumentalist Philip Masure from Belgium on the guitar is palpable. He has become one of the most sought-after guitarists on the Celtic scene and is also in demand as a studio musician.
Breton born Sylvain Barou is outstanding on flute, whistle, and uilleann pipes. Barou was highly praised as “the greatest flute player of his generation,” by Dónal Lunny (musician and producer at the forefront of the evolution of traditional Irish music for over 35 years).
Playing the heart-stopping voice of the bodhran - on which he is considered among the world’s best - is Jackie Moran, born in Tipperary though his family immigrated to Chicago when he was 10. Displaying the intense zeal of a natural born musician, he was firmly ensconced in the Chicago Irish music scene by the age of 14. Several prestigious awards later, he has proven his ability in Ireland as well.
The virtuosity of these musicians makes for a powerful evening of Celtic music in the near perfect acoustics of the historic Earlville Opera House. Tickets are $18 for the general public, $16 for EOH members, and $13 for students. Premium seating charges apply in the first four rows. The EOH Theater is wheelchair-accessible with a ramp and a lift. Don’t forget to visit our Artisan’s Gift Shop featuring New York artists and EOH Arts Café! The café is always open before the performance and during intermission, and serves tasty desserts, refreshing summer drink classics, and hot coffee/tea as well.
EOH is one of twelve participating sites for the Madison County Cultural and Historic Passports. Families are encouraged to pick up passports in order to learn about the county’s rich culture and heritage.
