What on Earth connects folk, fiddle and Portofino you may ask? You’ll be dazzled at the answer - it in fact features the Violin’s Prince of Darkness himself... virtuoso, maestro, impresario, 19th century heartthrob, the unrivalled spectacle of his time (and still ours!) - the man who wrote violin pieces impossible to play... Niccolo Paganini! Join famed Irish/Australian Virtuoso and celebrated Concertmaster Liam Keneally on a journey of discovery.
Once you enter the auditorium you’ll begin to feel your heart throb to the sublime melodies of Eduard Tubin’s Estonian Folk Song Suite. You’ll then be immediately launched onto your feet for a rousings collection of toe-tapping jigs, reels and hornpipes! Expect to also shed a tear (or more) during Liam’s rhapsodic renditions of his most beloved fiddle tunes - Danny Boy and Greensleeves.
To cap off the evening, we face the Devil himself as Liam attempts a live rendition of the fiendishly difficult Paganini Caprice No.24. You’ll be aware that Paganini's pieces have for now over two centuries been considered impossible to play by most violinists. Liam will put this to the test - you’ll gasp at the impossible speed, brilliance and blind talent Liam must conjure up to execute it.
