3-TRIÚR (In Search of Musical Form)

A Documentary by Dónal Ó Céilleachair

On RTE 1, 10.10 pm, Tuesday, April 3rd

3 Triúr (In Search of Musical Form) is a documentary on the ongoing collaboration between three of Ireland’s most distinguished musicians - Peadar Ó Riada, Martin Hayes & Caoimhín Ó Raghallaigh - in an intimate portrait of “the act and art of making music”. 

It’s rare for musicians of this calibre to allow a filmmaker such extensive access to the intimate, private, often painful creative process, but that’s exactly what they’ve agreed to do for this documentary: an incredible opportunity to view the tradition from three unique perspectives and generations.  The musicality of the documentary is complemented by an intimate, personal dimension, given the close bonds that have have grown steadily between the three as they swap stories, thoughts, ideas and tunes in a swirling exploration of the creative process that journeys to the “heart of our music”.
