Reachtálfar ceolchoirm dátheangach i Má Nuad le blianta idir 1912-23 a chomóradh agus a cheiliúradh, tréimhse chorraitheach i stair na tíre seo.
The Maynooth University Decade of Commemorations Committee and the Maynooth University Faculty of Arts, Celtic Studies and Philosophy present, in collaboration with the Maynooth University Research Week 2023, "All Changed, Changed Utterly: A Decade in Words and Music", a two-hour gala concert celebrating the literature and music that inspired, accompanied, chronicled, and reflected upon the transformative world events that took place between 1912 and 1923. Obscure artistic achievements will be rediscovered, iconic artistic achievements will be reappraised, and the audience will be invited to ruminate on the vital role of the Arts in shaping both the historical events themselves and, one hundred years later, our modern perspective on those events.
Ceolchoirm dhátheangach atá ann dar teideal "All Changed, Changed Utterly: A Decade in Words and Music" atá á chur i láthair ag Coiste Dheich mBliana na gCuimhneachán, OMN agus Dámh na nEalaíon, an Léinn Cheiltigh agus na Fealsúnachta, OMN, mar chuid de Sheachtain Taighde 2023.
Le linn na ceolchoirme, ceiliúrfar na healaíona Béarla agus Gaeilge a raibh tionchar acu agus a chaith siúl siar mhachnamhach ar imeachtaí stairiúla fíor-thábhachtacha na tréimhse 1912-1923. Beidh an Ghaeilge i gcroílár na ceolchoirme agus beidh an-chuid daoine ó phobal Gaeilge na hOllscoile, faoi láthair agus thar na blianta, ag glacadh páirte ar an oíche mar cheoltóirí agus aisteoirí. Ina measc, beidh Étáin agus Máire Ní Churraoin, alumni de chuid na hOllscoile a bheidh ag amhránaíocht ar an oíche mar An Chéad Ghlúin Eile.
