Bernadette Morris performing at TEDxBelfastWomen

County Tyrone born, Irish musician, Bernadette Morris continues to wow audiences throughout Ireland with her fresh take on traditional Irish folk songs and enthrals audiences with her modern versions of lilting Gaelic laments. Fluent Irish speaker, modest and sweetly spoken, Bernadette has music in her blood and has spent the last 25 of her tender 32 years, quietly immersed in music and song. From a musical family, her talent is the type that can't be taught, her onstage presence is electric and her charm undeniable. Bernadette started singing and playing fiddle at the young age of seven, and her musical talents and love of performance quickly developed and her unique singing voice and skilful fiddle playing were soon in high demand for various gigs, playing at venues and festivals all over Ireland and beyond.

In the spirit of ideas worth spreading, TEDx is a program of local, self-organized events that bring people together to share a TED-like experience. At a TEDx event, TEDTalks video and live speakers combine to spark deep discussion and connection in a small group. These local, self-organized events are branded TEDx, where x = independently organized TED event. The TED Conference provides general guidance for the TEDx program, but individual TEDx events are self-organized.* (*Subject to certain rules and regulations)
