Irish Traditional Tap Dance: Celtic Legends
Date: Feb 17-21 - 7:30 pm
Venue: National Centre for the Performing Arts
Price: 180-1,080 yuan
Born in the wild unspoiled lands of Connemara, Ireland back in 2001, the dance was created by a small team of young talents from Galway with a huge reputation for their contribution to Irish music and dance. The music is traditional at its raw and unique base uniting some of Ireland's most loved national instruments, the fiddle driving frenetic reels, the Bodhran beating out the driving rhythms of the band, the plaintive Uilleann pipes calling back with beautiful and haunting slow airs. Not forgetting those slow and moving ballads sung like a whisper on the wind. The dancers take the stage with brilliant flashes of speed. All of our dancers have performed from an early age winning many world championships and have toured with shows like Riverdance and Lord of the Dance. Irish dance has enjoyed a spectacular revival in recent years with the aforementioned Irish shows however Celtic Legends is not just another Irish dance show it is a true atmosphere and Irish culture experience with a tiny bit of bling and 100 percent live. The unsung heroes of Celtic Legends are William Blot & technical crew who enhance and make possible the pure sound and visual aspects of the show.
