Inishowen Traditional Music Project
Presents in association with Earagail Arts Festival:

ARCHIVE 23, Film screening and live performance!
Buncrana Cinema, Thurs 20th July at 8pm

ARCHIVE 23 is a project carried out by Inishowen Traditional Music Project to collect, record and present 23 traditional musicians and singers from Inishowen.
It is a celebration of the living and evolving music of the area.
The aim of the project is to film and document the traditional music of the area as it is in 2023.

The film features performances of tunes and songs from the local repertoire, along with new compositions. The film gives an insight as to how the music is currently being played and how musicians are being inspired from the local tradition, and how they are developing their own individual music from it.

This is a hybrid event will feature a documentary film, which is edited from the short individual films made for this project.
The event will also feature artists who will perform live after the screening.
All individual films will be hosted on the ITMP Archive at:
