Join Mary Bergin and friends for an evening of live traditional music. This is an open session and free for all.

Mary Bergin is an Irish traditional musician and master of the tin whistle, celebrated for elevating the instrument within modern folk music.

Born in Shankill, County Dublin to a musical family, Mary first won the All-Ireland tin whistle championship in 1970. Her landmark albums Feadóga Stáin (1979) and Feadóga Stáin 2 (1993) are considered definitive and she is internationally acclaimed as both performer and educator.

Bergin’s influence in traditional Irish music is profound. She is credited with elevating the Irish tin whistle to a premier position in modern traditional Irish music. As a founding member of the group Dordán, Bergin plays a unique blend of traditional Irish and European Baroque music. The group has earned wide acclaim and recognition, including receiving the National Entertainment Award for Traditional Music.

In 2000, Bergin herself was honored with the ‘TG4 Traditional Musician of the Year Award’, underlining her significant contributions to the music industry and Irish culture. In addition to these achievements, Bergin’s role as an influencer and educator in the realm of traditional Irish music was formally recognized in 2022 when she was awarded an Honorary Doctorate from University College Dublin. This accolade celebrated her outstanding contributions to the arts and culture and her status as a leading figure in Irish music. Her journey, marked by individual accomplishments and collaborative endeavors, underscores her status as a prominent figure in the Irish music scene. Bergin’s work continues to inspire and influence musicians and enthusiasts of Irish music around the world, cementing her legacy as a true icon in the field.
