Chris Droney : At the still point of the turning world

Post by Mr.Gumby »

Earlier today in the Courthouse Gallery in Ennistymon, Co Clare Chris Droney made an appearance as part of art project. The project was part of the Bealtaine festival, held to celebrate creativity in older people.


Chris talked, entertaining and dry witted as ever, played tunes and talked to Jack Talty about his own compositions and how he went about putting tunes together. To finish he was joined by his son Francis and a few of his grandchildren and a few figures of a set were danced.


I took a few snaps:

Great photos! Thanks for sharing. May we all be so fortunate to play tunes and celebrate the music along for as many years.
