A UCC graduate, Sligo- based Austrian violinist/singer/yodeller and composer Claudia Schwab has performed on numerous recordings and collaborated with a range of cross-genre artists both established and emerging.

In 2019 she was commissioned to write for the National Concert Hall’s- Sounding the Feminists Commissioning Scheme. The winning commission Ón Sliabh - Vom Berg will be premiered at this performance. In this commission, Claudia has taken inspiration from the rich, ancient mythology abundant in the landscape of her newly found home in Sligo.

Accompanied by a stellar line-up of musicians, we will also hear a selection of Claudia’s original funk - beat yodels, ragas turned reels, atmospheric drones and alpine harmonies.
