Girsa January 15, 2011

Girsa is an exciting all star ensemble of young ladies, aged 18-21, who create powerful and spirited Irish traditional music, song and dance. Comprised of young women from the Pearl River, NY area, Girsa means "young girls" in Gaelic. Steeped in the Irish music and cultural tradition, they have studied their instruments and dance with gifted teachers who pass on the time-honored tunes and songs. Many are the daughters of musicians and Irish immigrants. All have had the distinction of representing the United States at the All Ireland Fleadh Cheoil na hEireann and several girls hold titles in various instruments. Their lovely mix of lively tunes and beautiful traditional songs has gained a popular following.
