Irish Chamber Orchestra, Carolin & Jörg Widmann @ Kilkenny Arts Festival

Saturday, 18 August 2018, 7.30pm

For the final concert of their orchestral residency, acclaimed conductor/composer Jörg Widmann leads the Irish Chamber Orchestra in a thrilling programme of two of Beethoven’s most popular and at the same time most revolutionary works.

The Violin Concerto features his internationally fêted sister Carolin as soloist, while the irresistable energy of the Seventh Symphony is paired with (and indeed directly quoted in) Widmann’s own Con Brio, a modern classic drawing Beethoven into Widmann’s unique sonic landscape.
