About this event
Please note this event is currently cancelled until further notice.
The Penzance Cornish Traditional Music Session at the Admiral Benbow pub on Chapel Street focuses on Cornish traditional music. It is held every Thursday from 8pm – 10pm. A chance to experience a slice of free Cornish culture in unforgettable surroundings. Usually upstairs, it’s always lively.
Led by melodeon player John Gallagher, local musicians gather to play tunes covering the whole gamut of Cornish music, with the occasional song thrown in for good measure. You might hear sets of tunes joined together, from the 18th century, to new tunes from the 21st century. Cornish traditional music is very much a living tradition. The pace of the music can be quite fast. There is occasionally dancing. And you’re welcome to dance freestyle too!
