More details coming soon!
Did you know that the famous Irish author James Joyce played the guitar? This year we will swap the harp for the guitar with some music to liven up the literary words!
The famous 20th century Irish writer, James Joyce was also an accomplished singer and played guitar. Some of his work incorporated music rhythms.
We hope to have a short guitar performance for St Patrick's Day 2026 to liven up the event!
To be confirmed!
The photo above shows H.S.H. Prince Albert II with students from the Académie Rainier III following their concert in 2019 with Philippe Loli, the guitar professor and Noëlle Vera, the harp professor who retired in December 2025. We wish Noëlle a very happy and musical retirement and thank her from the bottom of our Irish hearts for her dedication to her students who each year have performed a private harp concert for the Prince at the Princess Grace Irish Library!
Join us for our celebration of Irish culture with dramatic readings from Ireland's best writers' works and a short display of music! Enjoy performances by amateur actors from the Monaco-Ireland Arts Society reading extracts from James Joyce, W.B. Yeats and Oliver Joseph St. John Gogarty.
