Kevin Barry Recital Room Seomraí Ceadail Chaoimhín De Barra
The restoration of the historic Kevin Barry Recital room is now complete. Three interconnecting rooms on the first floor, which were the setting for the Treaty ratification debates of the second Dáil Éireann have been transformed into a small recital space which was officially opened on Monday 11th April 2016 as one of the official Ireland 2016 Permanent Reminders.
Forming part of a replacement façade built between 1914 and 1919 and designed by the Irish architect R.M. Butler (later Professor of Architecture at UCD) the rooms were originally designed as the Council Chamber of University College Dublin. Between 14th December 1921 and 10th January 1922 these rooms were the setting for the Treaty ratification debates of the second Dáil Éireann, following the signing of the Anglo Irish Treaty in London on December 6th.
The opening season of events includes classical music, traditional music, jazz, contemporary
music, spoken word and lectures and currently running is a photographic exhibition on the history of space dating back to the Treaty debates.

Further work will continue around the Kevin Barry Recital Room which will see access
problems resolved by opening up the existing marble staircase to the main foyer and through
the addition of a lift. The foyer area on the first floor will become a bright and relaxed public
space, with access to a new atrium ‘winter garden' café.
This project will enable significant expansion of the artistic and educational programme of the National Concert Hall, will provide Irish musicians with exciting new opportunities to showcase their talents and provide the Irish music-loving public with a new small-scale venue for chamber music, jazz, traditional and contemporary music.

Tá an tathchóiriú ar sheomraí stairiúla ceadail Chaoimhín De Barra críochnaithe anois. Rinneadh
trí sheomra idirnasctha ar an gcéad urlár, inar tharla díospóireachtaí maidir le daingniú an Chonartha sa dara Dáil, a aistriú ina spás beag ceadail. Osclaíodh an spás sin go hoifigiúil ar an
Luan, an 11 Aibreán 2016, mar cheann de Mheabhrúcháin Bhuana Oifigiúla de chuid Éire 2016.
Bhí na seomraí mar chuid d’aghaidh ionaid a tógadh idir 1914 agus 1919 agus a dhear an tailtire Éireannach R.M. Butler (Ollamh le hAiltireacht in UCD ina dhiaidh sin). Dearadh ar dtús iad mar Sheomra Comhairle Choláiste na hOllscoile, Baile Átha Cliath. Idir an 14 Nollaig 1921 agus an 10 Eanáir 1922, bhí na díospóireachtaí faoi dhaingniú an Chonartha sa dara Dáil ar bun sna seomraí seo tar éis shíniú an Chonartha AnglaÉireannaigh i Londain ar an 6 Nollaig.
Áirítear ceol clasaiceach, ceol traidisiúnta, snagcheol, ceol comhaimseartha, an focal labhartha agus léachtaí sa chéad séasúr imeachtaí, agus tá taispeántas grianghraf ar siúl faoi láthair maidir le stair an spáis siar chomh fada le díospóireachtaí an Chonartha.

Déanfar obair bhreise ar Sheomra Ceadail Chaoimhín De Barra freisin trína réiteofar fadhbanna
rochtana tríd an staighre reatha chuig an bpríomhhalla a oscailt agus trí ardaitheoir a chur isteach. Beidh an limistéar halla ar an gcéad urlár ina spás poiblí geal agus suaimhneach, agus beidh rochtain ar chaifé nua ‘gairdín geimhridh’ san aitriam.
Cumasóidh an tionscadal fairsingiú suntasach ar chlár ealaíonta agus oideachais an Cheolárais
Náisiúnta. Ina theannta sin, cuirfidh sé deiseanna nua spreagúla ar fáil do cheoltóirí Éireannacha
chun a mbuanna a thaispeáint agus tabharfaidh sé ionad beag do phobal na hÉireann ar breá leo
ceol chun éisteacht le ceol aireagail, snagcheol, ceol traidisiúnta agus ceol comhaimseartha.
