Irish Music in South Africa

Darragh Morgan performs Irish electronic works at the Unyazi Festival on 12 September.

Fresh from his group the Fidelio Trio’s mini-tour of South Africa at the start of this month, violinist Darragh Morgan, alongside oboe player Alison Lowell, will perform music by Irish composers Donnacha Dennehy (Overstrung), Ed Bennett (String Factory) and Linda Buckley (Exploding Stars) at the Unyazi Electronic Music Festival in Durban, South Africa, on 12 September.

Entitled ‘Exploding Stars - New Works from Ireland and the UK’, the concert will also feature works by composers Mira Calix (just one more thing), Cameron Harris (Lullabies for Philomel), Ricardo Climent (Koorean Air) and Jonty Harrison (Some of its Parts). Each of the works on the programme includes an electronic component.
