2:00 PM - 3:00 PM  

Four Shillings Short, the husband-wife duo of Aodh Og O’Tuama, from Cork, Ireland and Christy Martin, from San Diego, California, have been touring in the United States and Ireland since 1997. Because of the vast array of musical instruments they play (30 + and growing) they have developed a program specifically to introduce this living museum of World Music. 

Plan on hearing a variety of traditional music from Ireland, Scotland, England, Europe, the Americas and India on over 30 different instruments from around the world, including hammered dulcimer, mandolin, mandola, bouzouki, Medieval and Renaissance woodwinds, recorders, tinwhistles, banjo, and much more
