Great example of Sí Bheag Sí Mhór too.

Sounds like a great event altogether. What's not to like?
I've often felt that we should focus more on the harp as a source of material. Suits the mandolin, I think, and the music of O'Carolan is a very good place to start.

Simon's got an all-Carolan CD coming out - https://www.acousticsrecords.co.uk/s...r/carolan.html

Here's an important announcement: this workshop turned out so popular and with such a considerable wait list of attendees that Simon has opened up a second version of it. Read about it here.

Simon says (you knew that was coming, right?), "Same hotel, repertoire and price but the new dates are 14-16 April 2023."
