Terry Moylan is a piper and dancer and now the chief archivist with Na Piobairí Uilleann at its Dublin headquarters on Henrietta St. He will present the first talk this year, which will take place at 6.30pm on 19th February 2013 at the Galway City Library. Terry’s talk, titled ‘Paddy’s Resource – The Songsters of the Society of United Irishmen’ will explore the content of the four editions of Paddy's Resource/The Harp of Erin, the songbooks published by the Society of United Irishmen. Terry will be looking at the repertoire of songs within the collections in terms of language, iconography and their political message, as well as considering the range of tunes to which the songs were set.

Admission is free and all are welcome. This series is hosted by Comhrá Ceoil and the Centre for Isish Studies, NUI Galway.
