Turas i gcomhar le Music Network
Jim Murray (giotár), Anxo Lorenzo (píobaí), Dónal O’Connor (veidhlín), Jack Talty (consairtín, pianó)
Ceathrar ceoltóir iomráiteach ó Éireann is Galicia tagtha le chéile don gcéad uair don turas seo i gcomhar le Music Network. Beidh ana-thóir ar thicéidí do seo – mar sin cuir in áirithint go luath iad!
Over the past ten years Anxo Lorenzo, Jim Murray, Dónal O’Connor and Jack Talty have been at the forefront of highly creative Galician and Irish music-making – as players, composers, arrangers, accompanists, producers and record label owners. Their individual talents as working musicians have seen them initiate hundreds of thoughtful and innovative projects, and the set list on this tour will include a Music Network commission from all four performers, their virtuosity and profound understanding of the music underpinning any daring off-piste exploration they might undertake.
Add to that a sharp intelligence and gentle curiosity about where this music sits in the world, how it relates to the world outside and you have a quartet of artists who have made a massive contribution to music in both local and international arenas. Thrilling, soulful, sincere and highly communicative, theirs is a music of people and place, of stillness, of confluence and of us.
