A stellar cohort of tutors is being lined up, many of them from overseas and composer Michael Rooney will prepare the orchestral score. The reaction to Meitheal 2008 was extremely positive and many students highlight the Finale Concert, the Ceilí House programme and the appearance at the National Concert Hall as being unforgettable experiences. Many of the award winners have already played at the events for which they were chosen. Oisín Morrison has completed an Irish tour with CCE, Billy O Brien and the group Dún Suas have played the National Concert Hall and Alan Reid & James Harvey appeared at the Ennis Trad Fest. Meanwhile, Courtney Cullen, Kavan Donohoe and Gavin Strappe are preparing for their festival gigs in the Spring.
