Teaċ Hiudái Beag

County Donegal


In the tiny town centre and with picnic tables out the front, Teaċ Hiudái Beag is noted for its Monday- and Friday-night music sessions where up to a dozen musicians play flutes, whistles, fiddles, bodhráns and sometimes war pipes (a larger and, consequently, louder precursor of the Highland bagpipes).
