Music Teaching
Jun, 1988 - PresentPatrick D. Music
I have been teaching music for over 25 years starting in Ireland and now at my home in Los Angeles. I have toured and recorded extensively with numerous bands and as a solo artist. I teach at Irish traditional music events all over the U.S. called tionol. Some examples are The North East Tionol (held annually in the Catskills), The Great Northern Irish Uilleann Pipers Tionol (held annually in the Twin Cities), Southern California Tionol (held annually in San Juan Capistrano). I also teach music through the Music Center of Los Angeles via a group called A Gaelic Gathering. We perform at schools and at the Disney Hall teaching Irish music, dance and culture.
