Irish Chamber Orchestra is Ireland’s most dynamic ensemble. Mixing traditional repertoire with new commissions and collaborating with everyone from DJs to dance companies, ICO pushes the boundaries of what a chamber orchestra can do. These days, you are as likely to find us at the Electric Picnic as Mozartfest, but wherever we perform, the ICO delivers world-class concerts feted for their energy and style. Each year, Ireland’s busiest chamber ensemble presents concert seasons in Limerick and Dublin, embarks on two national tours, and makes a series of prestigious international appearances supported by Culture Ireland.

Celebrated Austrian Violinist Thomas Zehetmair was appointed Principal Conductor/Artistic Partner in May 2022 for a three year term. Zehetmair’s enthusiasm and commitment is matched by the orchestra itself, led by the ebullient Katherine Hunka, and comprises of 22 outstanding musicians. ICO’s special rapport, forged by over 20 years of playing – and sometimes singing! – together, creates the unique sound that has captivated audiences all over the world.

At the heart of this vision is the belief that music is for everyone. ICO has implemented an ambitious and far-reaching strategy that aims to take music out of the concert hall and into the local community, inspiring children to try music for themselves, and supporting them on their journey from first lesson to public performance. Our ground-breaking initiative, Sing Out with Strings (SOWS), offers primary school children in Limerick the chance to learn free music. Now in its fifteenth year, the project has been hailed as a model of social inclusion, offering opportunities for young people, developing key life skills, and providing tangible long-term benefits for participants, their families, and the wider community. ICO is orchestra-in[1]residence at the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance at the University of Limerick and is funded by The Arts Council of Ireland/An Chomhairle Ealaíon.

Mendelssohn Quartet Op.12

Moeran Quartet in E flat

Charlotte Harding Iorsa

Dvorak Quartet Op.96 "American"

The distinguished Piatti Quartet are widely renowned for their ‘profound music making’ (The Strad) and their ‘lyrical warmth’ (BBC Music Magazine). Since their prizewinning performances at the 2015 Wigmore Hall String Quartet Competition, they have performed all over the world and made international broadcasts from many countries.

The Piattis are famed for their diverse programming and for passionate interpretations across the spectrum of quartet writing, and have commissioned and recorded some of the most major and impressive works added to the quartet canon in recent years.

Since their inception they have always had projects in the recording studio with critically acclaimed releases through Linn, Somm, Champs Hill, Hyperion, Delphian, Nimbus and NMC record labels. Their wide ranging discography and repertoire is thanks to their enthusiasm and curiosity in collaborating with a broad range of artists including some of the most recognisable names in classical music such as Nicky Spence, Julius Drake, Michael Collins, Barry Douglas, Janina Fialkowska, Melvyn Tan, Ian Bostridge, Katherine Broderick, Adam Walker, Simon Callaghan and the Belcea Quartet. Accolades in 2023 include Gramophone’s ‘Editor’s Choice for the Month’ with NMC, a five star review from BBC Music Magazine with Delphian and in 2022 they were nominated for ‘Recording of the Year’ with both Limelight and Gramophone for their collaborative disc on the Hyperion label.

Contemporary music has been ever present in their repertoire and leaving a legacy to the quartet genre through commissions is one of the quartet’s central tenets. Major commissions and dedications have stemmed from Mark-Anthony Turnage, Emily Howard, Charlotte Harding, and Joseph Phibbs whilst they have premiered a mesmerising number of new works over the years beginning with Anna Meredith back in 2009. The Concertgebouw Amsterdam, Flagey Radio Hall Brussels, Wigmore Hall London, and the Aldeburgh Festival are some of the high profile occasions where new music has been presented and recordings of Turnage’s quartets 1-4 and Gavin Higgins’ chamber music has also been extensively lauded by critics.

Historical research into quartet music that has been undiscovered or deserves to be better known has led to the premiere recording of Ina Boyle’s (Ireland) SQ in E minor, and performances of lesser known quartet gems by Ralph Vaughan Williams, E.J. Moeran, Rachmaninov, Ireland, Haas, Ulmann, and Durosoir.

The quartet’s name is dedicated to Alfredo Piatti, a 19th Century virtuoso cellist who was a professor at the Royal Academy of Music (the alma mater of the founder’s of the quartet) and also a major exponent of chamber music and contemporary music of his time.

Inish is the new album by singer and cellist Naomi Berrill, produced and published by Casa Musicale Sonzogno.

Preceded by the single Sea Warrior, dedicated to the figure of the Irish pirate Grace O' Malley, this new fourth album tells of the life of Inishark and Inishbofin, two islands located off the west coast of Ireland. A cycle of stories, real or fictional, which rise to myth from the everyday life from which they come to life. Deities, animals, or simple fishermen, are the protagonists of the ten tracks that make up the album; ten songs between the sea and the land, where the events and feelings narrated belong to a microcosm of which we are all actors and spectators.

Inish is, in fact, the musical narration of the beauty of these islands, of the strength and courage of their inhabitants, but also of the harshness of the life of the fishing community. Through sound, Naomi Berrill sings of courage, adventure, love and light, intertwined with loneliness, danger, adversity, loss and extreme pain.

Inish also marks the beginning of the new collaboration between Berrill and the producer and musician Lorenzo Pellegrini, together with the drummer and multi-instrumentalist Andrea Beninati. The trio, a new dimension for the Irish musician, gives life to a contemporary sound, decisive and fluid at the same time, with elements of folk, jazz and classical music.

It's difficult to place Naomi's vocals in a specific place. The grace and lightness with which she expresses herself, together with the colors and sounds of the instruments, manage to convey the power of a story, a face or a feeling.

Naomi Berrill is an Irish cellist, multi-instrumentalist, composer, author and singer who has lived in Florence for several years. After completing her classical studies in Scotland, Switzerland and Italy, she began to experiment with the use of the instrument as an accompaniment to the voice, composing and arranging new pieces in which improvisation also takes place.

In 2021, Fretwork celebrated its 35th anniversary. In these last three and a half decades, they have explored the core repertory of great English consort music, from Taverner to Purcell, and made classic recordings against which others are judged.

In addition to this, Fretwork have become known as pioneers of contemporary music for viols, having commissioned nearly 50 new works. The list of composers is like the role call of the most prominent writers of our time: George Benjamin, Michael Nyman, Sir John Tavener, Gavin Bryars, Elvis Costello, Alexander Goehr, John Woolrich, Orlando Gough, Fabrice Fitch, Peter Sculthorpe, Sally Beamish, Tan Dun, Barry Guy, Andrew Keeling, Thea Musgrave, Simon Bainbridge, Poul Ruders, John Joubert, Duncan Druce & Nico Muhly.

In 2010 they also curated a week-long concert series of concerts at Kings Place which culminated in the world premier of ‘The World Encompassed’ by Orlando Gough, a 70-minute piece describing in musical terms Drake’s circumnavigation of the globe in 1577-80.

In 2011, The National Centre for Early Music, in collaboration with the BBC, hosted a competition for young composers to create a four-minute piece for Fretwork. They workshopped the shortlisted pieces at the NCEM in York in October, and then the winning entries were premiered in Kings Place in December 2011. In 2014 they concentrated on the music of John Dowland with a major tour of the UK with one of todays greatest tenors: Ian Bostridge. They also spent a week in the Britten Studio in Aldeburgh re-working Orlando Gough’s ‘The World Encompassed’, to incorporate a spoken narrative drawn from contemporary accounts.

‘Slow: an In Nomine” by Nico Muhly was premiered in 2015 at Kings Place in London, and they collaborated with celebrated actor Simon Callow in the revised version of The World Encompassed and recorded it for Signum Classics.

This concert will feature music by: Bach, Debussy, Byrd, Arvo Part, Purcell, Dave Brubeck and Kate Bush!

Music for Wexford are happy to host a concert given by Exeter Cathedral Choir, with Tim Noon Music Director (previous Sub-Organist at St Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin) and James Anderson-Bessant, organ, as part of their 2023 tour of Ireland. The concert will include choral classics from Byrd, Händel and Rutter, and will feature Wexford Tenor Eamonn Mulhall.

Described by Classic FM as “one of the country’s finest choirs,” Exeter Cathedral Choir leads around eight services each week during term time, maintaining a tradition that has been largely unbroken for centuries. It also has a busy programme of other engagements, which often includes tours (most recently to Austria and Slovakia), concerts, recordings and radio broadcasts.

The 2nd of our lunchtime concerts featuring talented young musicians from the RIAM

We continue our tradition of offering talented chamber ensembles of young musicians from the RIAM the opportunity to perform.

Trio Cantare was formed in 2021 by members Cahal Masterson, Piano, Gemma Ní Bhriain, Mezzo-Soprano, and Yseult Cooper Stockdale, Cellist.

Together they have performed at Drogheda Classical Music and Belfast International Arts Festival and have been broadcast live on Lyric FM. Individually they enjoy diverse careers in Ireland and internationally, working with ensembles such as Irish National Opera, Irish Chamber Orchestra, Opera Northern Ireland, Welsh National Opera, Ulster Orchestra and National Symphony Orchestra. As chamber and recital artists they have performed at festivals and series including Music for Galway, Kilkenny Arts Festival, Music for Wexford, Finding a Voice, and West Cork Music.

The three remained friends after graduating from the Royal Irish Academy of Music in 2014, and it was a love of chamber music and an interest in highlighting women composers that lead to the formation of the ensemble. They find the repertoire for their unique combination especially rewarding and they look forward to further exploring the natural pairing of cello and voice upon the piano’s rich harmonic canvas.

Nava is a Dublin-based quartet exploring the musical cultures of Ireland and Persia. It is comprised of banjoist Paddy Kiernan, guitarist/bassist Niall Hughes, and Iranian born brothers Shahab and Shayan Coohe, on santoor, and tombak/tar/clarinet respectively.

March 2022 saw Nava release their third studio recording, “Toranj”, following up from 2017’s “Tapestry” and 2019’s “Sojourns, Volume 1”.

The album sees them incorporate a wider array of musical influences to their Persian-Irish foundation, incorporating Turkish music, Indian Classical, modal jazz, Scandinavian folk music, and a traditional piece inspired by the Baloochestan region of Iran.

The album’s title “Toranj” is Farsi for the central point of a Persian rug’s design, where the various patterns all meet. It’s reflective of the creative vision that drove the project; of an innovative, adventurous group of musicians weaving their influences and instruments into a rich sonic tapestry, charting a confident next step in the development of this unique ensemble.

www.navatheband.com

"Listening to the cross-cultural blend of Nava one would think the two musical cultures of Persia and Ireland had been historically connected. They haven’t...until now. A pioneering musical collaboration."
