Event Description

A bold synthesis of Traditional, Jazz and Classical (The Journal of Music).

Two of Ireland’s most distinctive musicians, Aoife Ní Bhriain and Cormac McCarthy, join the RTÉ Concert Orchestra to present a compelling programme, informed by a shared musical heritage and transformed through a contemporary lens.

Aoife, hailing from Dublin, has established herself as one of the most versatile musicians of her generation, while Cormac, a pianist and composer from Cork, is said to ‘defy categorisation’ (RTÉ lyric fm).

Featuring music from their acclaimed debut album, Cosán Casta, and a daring new work for violin, piano and orchestra, this promises to be a night of celebration as we honour our rich musical tradition and explore its infinite possibilities.
