In The Blood to Screen on RTÉ 1
In The Blood, an hour-long documentary telling the remarkable story of The Kilfenora Céilí Band, will be broadcast at 22.30 on Tuesday, 7th April, on RTÉ 1. This legendary band is now celebrating one hundred years in existence.
Directed by John O’Donnell, the documentary explores The Kilfenora Céilí Band, both past and present and looks at how their music evolved from the Fife and Drum band of the 1800s into the Brass and Reid at the turn of the century before eventually settling into a ten piece band of wind and string instruments.
The documentary was funded by the Broadcast Commission of Ireland, Bord Scannán na hÉireann / the Irish Film Board, the Arts Council and RTÉ, and includes contributions from such well–respected musicians and broadcasters as PJ Curtis and Kieran Hanrahan.
