About Washington Square Harp and Shamrock Orchestra
Founded in 2000, The Washington Square Harp and Shamrock Orchestra [WSHSO] is led by Professor Mick Moloney and based at NYU. The WSHSO plays traditional Irish music with a focus on older tunes, tunes with New York City history, and tunes with fun stories attached. Our repertory and sound recalls that of the Irish-American dance bands of the early twentieth century, including The Four Provinces Orchestra, Dan Sullivan’s Shamrock Band, Pat Roche’s Harp and Shamrock Orchestra, and Erin’s Pride Orchestra.
OCTOBER 12, 2008 -- SAVE THE DATE!On Sunday, October 12, 2008, the WSHSO will be part of a star-studded lineup at Symphony Space in New York City, all in support of the Mercy Center. The group will appear alongside Cherish the Ladies, the Green Fields of America, Tommy Sands, Peter Yarrow (of Peter, Paul and Mary renown), the McCourts and more! It's for an incredibly worthy cause--if you only go to one concert this fall, this should be it!
