To and Fro, from Chicago to Offaly

Join us at Tullamore Library where Midland Strings, amateur string ensemble based in Tullamore will play music from Irish fiddler, composer and recording artist, Liz Carroll. Liz was born in Chicago, Illinois, of Irish parents originating from Mucklagh, Co. Offaly. Liz is the first Irish-American musician to be nominated for a Grammy and the first American-born composer honoured with the Cumadoir TG4, Ireland’s most significant traditional music prize. Many of Liz Carroll’s tunes are inspired by memories from holidays in Offaly during her childhood, where she visited her extended family. William Troy, a local composer from Ballyfin, Co. Laois has adapted the tunes for Midland Strings.
