The Clancy Legacy Celtic Christmas Comes to Linden Place Mansion
December 13, 2013 |
Linden Place Mansion will cross the musical sea on Friday, December 13th at 7:30 p.m. with The Clancy Legacy Celtic Christmas, a concert honoring both the holidays and
winter solstice.
This concert is a celebration of the holiday season in the Clancy tradition! The Clancy Legacy includes some of the next generation of performers descended from the Clancy
Brothers of Ed Sullivan fame in the 1960’s. Aoife Clancy (pronounced “Eefa”) is on vocals and bodhran, Robbie O’Connell on guitar and vocals and George Keith on fiddle and concertina – together they create a delightful musical tapestry to celebrate the season.
In this fireside performance in the carriage house style ballroom, The Clancy Legacy will perform Celtic-flavored pieces, ranging from little-known Kilmore carols of Wexford to the Irish-American vaudeville stage. They will also explore both the Christian and Pagan traditions surrounding the winter solstice in a mix of songs and instrumental pieces.
DeWolf Tavern on the Bristolwaterfront will offer a special pre-fixe menu for concert goers. Dine at this fantastic restaurant, recognized by Esquire as one of America’s best restaurants, before enjoying The Clancy Legacy in concert. They will offer a special three course Prix Fixe dinner for $19.95 per person (for Linden Place concert-goers only!) including a glass of beer or wine. Please make reservations in advance by calling DeWolf Tavern at 401-254-2005 and ask for a seating no later than 5:30pm to ensure arrival at Linden Place for the 7:30pm performance. Diners should specify when they arrive that they are attending the concert and will be given the
special menu.
