- The 'Fleá' (say 'fla' as in 'flat') is a moveable feast of Ireland's traditional music that takes place every summer over a period of about five days in a specially selected Irish town. In 1967 it took place in Kilrush, County Clare. This film of the event by Louis Marcus won awards at a string of international film festivals.
In this broadcast by TG4, Ireland's television service in the Irish language, the commentary by Niall Tóibín, the celebrated actor and broadcaster, is in Irish with subtitles in English.
Bain súlach as! Enjoy it!
Proud to say I was at that Fleadh with My Dad (R.I.P) and my younger brother...
There were never any singers or musicians in our family and we never went anywhere when I was in primary school in Cork City in the 1940s. I envy and admire the way you and so many like you were brought up to feel and to experience the living traditions of Ireland. When I was doing Irish in a secondary school in Dublin in the 1950s we had to learn poems in Irish. Many were called 'amhrán' rather than 'dán'. We knew that 'amhrán' meant a song but we were never given a chance to sing any of them!
muisire
big up my grandad Paddy Ryan at the end of this, he was a big singer years ago from Quilty Co Clare and a lovely man x.
those were the days Lovely video music and song
That is fantastic.............real people, real music, real emotions. Glad the witchdoctor priests are not often seen in public now.
I thoroughly enjoyed this video. Perhaps you recognised your parents or even your grand -parents in this video. I also noticed that the script was written by Brendan O hEithir and commentary by Chris Curran, both of RTE Radio and TV fame. Thanks once again TG4
