We hear from Claire Nic Ruair铆 about how she went from classical music to a sean-n贸s style of singing. Did her classical training help her when she was starting out learning the se谩n-n贸s style? She also talks about her experience of singing with various choirs over the years and how her music has been influenced by her time in Donegal. Claire will be competing in Corn U铆 Riada at this year's Oireachtas na Samhna and there is a chance to hear some of her beautiful singing.
