Our ever popular multi-genre series returns once again to the Mick Lally Theatre this winter. These tasting-menus of music never fail to entertain and inspire. This popular series is co-curated by our International Guest Resident Artist Sander Saarmets with Galway performer-composer Anna Mullarkey, and feature local and national guest artists, to create a rich and varied musical experience.
On Saturday 14 December Anna Mullarkey joins Saartmets in producing a tasting menu of musical treats. Fresh from the success of her astounding collaboration with Enda Walsh at the Abbey Theatre – Safe House – Mullarkey takes to the stage with her unique sound of electronics and vocals. Sander will collaborate with celebrated cellist, multi-instrumentalist and composer from Cork, Kevin Murphy, on another fusion set looking at the interplay of trad and electronics. Adrian Mantu and Andreea Banciu of ConTempo Quartet take the classical reins with repertoire for viola and cello. The event will feature ensemble finale with a new work by Mullarkey.
This series of events is free, family-friendly, and donations are welcome. Booking is not required but early arrival is advised.
