Historical note
Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann (CCÉ) was founded in Dublin, Ireland in 1951 to promote Irish music,song, dance, and language. In January 1951, members of the Thomas Street (Dublin) Pipers' Club metin County Westmeath to form an organization to promote Irish traditional music and to plan an annualfestival of Irish music, song and dance. The first Fleadh Cheoil (music festival) was held in Mullingarin May 1951, and the first officers of Cumann Ceoltóirí na hÉireann were elected on October 14, 1951in Dublin. The following year, the organization changed its name to Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann. Theaim of the Fleadh Cheoil was to publicize traditional music and to forestall a decline in its popularityin Ireland. After only five years, the annual Fleadh had grown to a major national festival featuringperformances from traditional musicians, singers, and dancers from throughout Ireland.
There are currently branches of Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann in every county in Ireland, sponsoringclasses, concerts and cultural events in local communities. There are over 400 branches of ComhaltasCeoltóirí Éireann worldwide including more than 50 branches in North America.
Comhaltas Ceoltóirí Éireann's North American Province was established in Chicago in 1972. Itsponsored its first concert tour group in October 1972, and today supports concerts, dance classes, musicinstruction, and other events in traditional Irish arts throughout the United States and Canada.
CCÉ's headquarters are located in Dublin, Ireland. CCÉ North America is organized into seven regionalbranches: Canada East, Canada West, Mid-Atlantic, Midwest, Northeast, Southern and Western.
