Irish music is now a harbinger of spring for the Presenting Series, so welcome legendary Irish fiddler Martin Hayes and his gifted group, The Common Ground Ensemble, for the eve of spring to honor the heart of Ireland and follow the tradition into new territory.
Known for founding the supergroup The Gloaming, Hayes's distinctive lightness of playing has captivated audiences worldwide. Quiet laments to joyful reels weave moments at once intimate and epic, meditative and exhilarating. The group's artistry creates a space where old-world heritage meets contemporary innovation, making every performance a journey through memory, identity, and shared emotion.
Embrace the spirit of St. Patrick's season by discovering the magic of global music. Leave with a brimming heart, your soul stirred, and if you're lucky enough to be Irish, you're lucky enough!
*Made possible by the Thomas M. Hagerty Family Performing Arts Endowment for Excellence.
