NPU Tionól

I’ve been “non-scene” for a few years now and am considering going to my first ever Irish Tionól. (Not counting Willie weeks in the 80s)

Could anyone tell me anything about the tutors at the NPU Tionól - Rosaleen O’Leary and Mary Mitchell?

And maybe about the NPU Tionól in general.

Thanks

David

Hmm…all very quiet.

Was it a bit naïve to ask this on an open forum, or is this forum too international, or..??

Thanks for the one reply, which was helpful and has now mysteriously vanished (how does he do that?)

If anyone would pm me with their favourite Irish Tionól I’d appreciate it.

Thanks

David

(how does he do that?)

He uses a special top secret highly classified gizmo called the keyboard…that combined with a relationship with the moderators and anything’s possible… :smiley: .

If there hasn’t been a subsequent reply, you can delete your post.

I haven’t been to one of the tionols in Ireland, so I can’t help on that front.

Is that in any way related to that other “special top secret highly classified gizmo” called the “garage door emergency release cord” ? :smiley:

Condolences on having to sell your pipes. :cry:

Hi David, I’m sure the NPU Tionol will be great, if you fancy the only British mainland sumer school as well, check out ‘The Second Annual Floating Tionol’ ths June. E-mail me for details if interested.

Just noticed the tutors mentioned on the NPU website have changed to Ronan Browne and Rosaleen O’Leary.
