SUMMARY:Hugh Higgins: A Mayo Harper and his Music with harper Laoise Kelly
DESCRIPTION:Join acclaimed harper Laoise Kelly for an afternoon exploring the life and legacy of Hugh Higgins\, the blind harper from County Mayo who was one of eleven harpers to perform at the landmark 1792 Belfast Harp Festival.
