Comhghairdeachas le Edwina Guckian, Gradam Comaoine TG4 2022!
Seo agallamh gairid le Edwina a taifeadaíodh ag seoladh Gradam Ceoil TG4 2022!

Here's an interview with Edwina Guckian from the launch of Gradam Ceoil TG4 2022!

Guckian is also the Artistic Director of Leitrim Dance Project and has produced events focused on traditional arts and dance. In 2020 and 2021, she managed the Modern Day Mummers project, where she – along with singer Fionnuala Maxwell and accordionist Brian Mostyn – visited the homes of elderly people across Leitrim, dancing, playing music and performing. The project aimed to revive the mumming tradition and break the social isolation experienced by many elderly people during the pandemic. Other recent projects include Devil in the Feet, a documentary on the history of Irish traditional dance (2021); Sowing the Seed, a project aimed at reviving the customs and folk traditions of Ireland associated with straw (2021); and in November 2020, she featured in an episode of the Irish Traditional Music Archive’s Drawing from the Well online series.

Trí The Airc Damhsa Culture Club, The Leitrim Dance Project, The Modern-Day Mummers agus na tograí is déanaí dá cuid, Sowing the Seed agus Jenny put the Kettle on, tá spreagadh tugtha aici do na mílte leanaí agus daoine fásta tabhairt faoin damhsa i dtimpeallacht spraíúil agus neamhiomaíoch. Oibríonn sí gan stad gan staonadh chun seoda cultúir a ceantair dúchais, Liatroim, a chur chun cinn tríd an obair a dhéanann sí leis an gcuid is mó de na heagraíochtaí cultúir agus ealaíon in Éirinn sa lá atá inniu ann. Tá an stáitse roinnte aici leis na taibheoirí ceoil is iomráití sa tír sa lá atá inniu ann agus tá sí, gan dabht, ar dhuine de mhórdhamhsóirí aonair na hÉireann.
