Due to the pandemic we were forced to cancel the 2020 Cascadia Irish Music Week.
Welcome to our website. If you love Irish traditional music, Cascadia Irish Music Week is a great opportunity to improve your playing and deepen your understanding of one of the world’s great musical traditions. Explore our website and let us know if you have questions not answered here. We’re delighted to once again welcome some of the world’s finest Irish traditional musicians and we hope you can join us this summer. Think of Irish traditional music as a language, and Cascadia Irish Music Week as an immersion program. At Cascadia you’ll be surrounded by traditional music all week long, played by our excellent teachers and by fellow students. You'll play in sessions, attend classes, hear afternoon talks by the teachers plus intimate evening concerts. By the end of the week you'll come away with some new tunes and a deeper sense of how the music feels and sounds, as well as advice on technique from excellent teachers. All that plus a week of great fun with wonderful people!
