This year marks 75 years of Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann. From humble beginnings in 1951, Comhaltas has grown into a global organisation across 22 countries promoting Irish music, song and dance.
Here in Clare – the county has played a vital role over the years in shaping the Comhaltas journey.
Clare FM's Daragh Leamy spoke with Labhrás Ó Murchú, Ardstiúrthóir of Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann about this significant anniversary.
