Ceoltóir Óg na bliana #TG4 – Maitiú Ó Casaide Young Musician of the Year – Maitiú Ó Casaide Maitiú is a young uilleann piper with an impeccable musical pedigree and a very bright future. He was born and reared in Ranelagh, in south Dublin in October 1988. He is from the third generation of the famed musical Ó Casaide family: His father Feargus and his uncles and aunt are the renowned and internationally acclaimed Na Casaidigh. Not surprisingly, his was a very musical upbringing as Maitiú grew up in the midst of numerous family sessions and musical gatherings. He clearly remembers his own first attempt at making music when at the tender age of 3, his grandfather, Seán, came to the house with a present of a tiny fiddle for him. Maitiú attended Scoil Bhríde, the long-established Gaelscoil just a few streets away from his home in Ranelagh where he learnt the fiddle and tin whistle with various teachers including Éamon Doorley, Michelle O’Brien and Maureen McGrattan. At the age of 10 and fascinated by the sound of his uncle Odhrán’s pipes, Maitiú decided he wanted a set of his own. He started attending classes at Na Píobairí Uilleann where he had numerous teachers over the years including Joe Doyle, Nollaig Mac Cárthaigh, Leo Rickard, Tommy Martin, Harry Bradley and Seán Potts. He later went on to have lessons with Conor McKeon. He has been also influenced by many of the great pipers, past and present; Séamus Ennis, Willie Clancy, Tommy Reck, Patsy Touhey and Seán McKiernan. His secondary school years in another famous musical hothouse, the long-established Coláiste Eoin in Stillorgan, had a big bearing on his musical development. Here he won the Siansa talent competition with his band Ar an bPreab in 2007. Since graduating from Trinity College with a degree in History and Irish in 2011, he has taken to music full- time and he plays regularly with his friends in The Cobblestone Bar in Smithfield, Dublin. He is twice winner of Oireachtas naGaeilge, pipes competition. Maitiú, his sister Natalie along with Barry and Conor Lyons, Moss Landman, Turlough Chambers and Adam Whelan form the group The Bonny Men. Their début album was very well received and they are about to release their second album, Moyne Road. The band have been making heads turn at festivals around Ireland, Europe and even as far away as Indonesia as well as TV appearances including in a forthcoming edition of the TG4 musical journey and exploration documentary series Ar Thóir an Cheoil. Maitiú was also central in researching and producing of TV documentary programme about the history of Na Píobairí Uilleann, by Dearcán Media, which was aired on TG4 in January 2015. He has toured internationally with Rian, a contemporary dance show featuring Liam Ó Maonlaí, Eithne Ni Chatháin, Peter O’Toole and Cormac Begley and eight dancers from around the world. The musicians from this show have since released an album December 2014 called Ré. He also oversaw the production of Amhrán do Phádraig a fundraising album, also released in December 2014, for his friend Pádraig Schaler who acquired severe brain injury in a bicycle accident while working on summer student visa in the USA in 2013. The album which includes Dreamboat, a bilingual song Maitiú composed especially for him. He sometimes plays as a guest with Na Casaidigh and sings with the family in the choir founded by his grandfather over 40 years ago to enhance the liturgy in Irish at their local church in Beechwood Avenue Church in Ranelagh. Maitiú also Teaches pipes weekly at NPU and annually at the Willie Clancy Summer School Milltown Malbay. He also teaches whistle at his old primary school. Clann Máitiú Ó Casaide ag seinm ón gcartlann. Míreanna le Máitiú agus a mhuintir ag ceol agus iad ag fás aníos. Muintir Uí Chasaide faoi agallaimh. Tógtha ón gclár Ar Thóir an Cheoil. Tá an píobaire óg seo as Baile Átha Cliath ar dhuine den tríú glúin de theaghlach a bhfuil cáil an cheoil air le fada an lá. I Raghnallach i ndeisceart na príomh-chathrach a rugadh é mí Dheireadh Fómhair 1988 agus is ann a tógadh é freisin. Is mac é le Feargus, duine den ghrúpa cáiliúil teaghlaigh Na Casaidigh, rud a fhágann gur garmhac é le Seán, cigire, scoláire, cumadóir agus cóiritheoir ceoil. Go deimhin bhronn a sheanathair fidil bheag ar Mhaitiú agus gan é ach ina mhalrach trí bliana d’aois agus bhí an ceol ina thimpeall ón gcliabhán.
