Spink Comhaltas now on SoundCloud

Spink Comhaltas has invested in and produced 2 volumes of music to support our musicians building up their repertoire of traditional Irish music. These are available on Soundcloud and on this website.

Our Music Classes

We teach music in small groups to encourage the social aspect of playing together, and musicians are streamed with other musicians of similar ability.

Instrument Bank

We maintain an instrument bank – primarily for our junior musicians – to allow musicians to learn to play a new instrument at a cost-effective price until they are ready to invest in their own instrument.
