Celebrate St. Patrick’s Day with The Chieftains – March 19-21

Maestro Kaufman says the perfect description of The Chieftains is, “Memorable and legendary. Without a doubt, they are the world’s greatest performers of the music of Ireland.  I remember the first time I worked with The Chieftains. I had never been to Ireland, but that night, through the music, I felt as though I’d experienced the excitement and joy of actually being there. The sounds, the words, the spirit…this is what makes The Chieftains the best in the world.”

Preceding The Chieftains performance, Kaufman leads the orchestra in “An Irish Celebration” of songs, dances and waltzes inspired by the band’s native country, including the “Far and Away” Suite by John Williams, “My Wild Irish Rose” and “When Irish Eyes are Smiling.”
