Friends of the Irish History DVD Project,
Based on suggestions for fundraising projects, we will be holding an
Irish music contest to determine what songs and artists will feature
on our project's audio CD fundraiser. Songs on the CD must relate to
a period or event(s) in Irish History so that they may be included in
the DVD later on. So if you are an individual or group that performs
Irish music we are very interested in you. As you may know music has
long been a means to tell our history. In return for you submissions
we will offer a free listing on our website for your web page. If you
do not have a website and are among the winners of the contest, we
will make you a web page to promote your music. Musical contributors
to CD the will receive full credit on CD and the DVDs as they are
done. Also links on websites promoting the CD.
The CD tentively titled "Songs in Irish History" will also contain
original works that are published nowhere else.
This CD will play an important part of our efforts to bring Irish
History to the world in a new and exciting way.
If you know of any Irish music performers pass this on to them.
MP3 short samples will be featured on our website in the near future.
Advance orders will soon be accepted for the CD with a special
donation of USA $9.95 which will be 33 percent cheaper than the list
donation of USD $14.95.
