The Lied Center for Performing Arts at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln will present Celtic music ensemble Danu at 7:30 p.m. on March 9.
Danu, named for a mother goddess in Irish mythology, is one of the leading traditional Irish ensembles today. Hailing from Waterford, Ireland, the seven-member group performs a high-energy mix of ancient Irish music and new repertoire.
Tickets may be purchased at the Lied Center Ticket Office, 301 N. 12th St., by phone at 402-472-4747 or online athttp://www.liedcenter.org. Ticket prices start at $22 for adults and $11 for youth.
A pre-show talk, scheduled one-half hour before the performance, will be led by Lori McAlister, local Celtic music and history enthusiast and vice president of the St. David's Welsh Society of Nebraska. The talk, free to ticket holders, will be in the Lied Center's Steinhart Room.
The Lied Center's 23rd season is supported by Friends of Lied, Ameritas and Union Bank. All events in the Lied Center are made possible entirely or in part by the Lied Performance Fund, established in memory of Ernst F. Lied and his parents, Ernst M. and Ida K. Lied.
