Join Concorde, the first (and longest-lasting) contemporary music ensemble to be established in Ireland, for a lunchtime rendition of family-friendly new music. Adventurous, inventive and always surprising, the performance will feature new works from five composers: Judith Ring (…within an egg of space…), Deirdre McKay (buttons, breath, bow), Jane O’Leary (Winter Sketchbook I & III), Garth Knox (Wild Animals) and a new commission from Co. Down’s Ed Bennett.

“engaging and persuasive” The Irish Times, on Concorde

“exceptionally imaginative in the sound world she creates” Irish Examiner, on Deirdre McKay

All Aboard Concorde offers a chance for listeners of all ages to experience and engage with new music up close in an intimate setting as a family. Explore new music together - and maybe even get to draw the music as it happens!
