The Galway Education Centre, Cluain Mhuire, Wellpark, Galway.
This is a wonderful opportunity to hear clarinettist Paul Roe playing with Con Tempo. The musicians will introduce their instruments and the sounds they can make - some of them are very strange indeed - and explore some fun music from different times and composers. Toe-tapping, hand-clapping, knee smacking fun.
