Trad Group

The Marist Traditional Music Group help to encourage and celebrate Irish culture and heritage through music. A whole-school group, instrumentalists include fiddlers, accordion players, whistle players, flute players and bodhrán players. The students represent the Marist at various events like 1st Year Mass, 6th Year Graduation Mass, Seachtain na Gaeilge, and perform as part of the Marist welcome to our German exchange students. They represent their own Comhaltas branches from all over Dundalk, and gather once a month for a 'seisiún', where they learn and play tunes together.

Any trad musicians in the Marist are always welcome to join the Marist Trad Group!
