Denice Brown

Denice Brown is a founding member of Cór Gaeilge Texais, a singing group formed in 1997 to explore and present the traditional music of the Gaelic-speaking peoples. The group performs a wide range of songs from marches to lullabies and drinking tunes to hymns. Denice focuses her interest toward the sean nós (old style) singing of Ireland with its emphasis on the language and the use of ornamentation to provide emphasis. Along with some language introduction, she will teach a selection of airs, and short songs as well as favorites from the Cór Gaeilge Texais repertoire in the traditional unaccompanied style. She has been studying Irish since 1994 and leads a study group in South Dallas.
