Join us for an informal concert of moving minimalist music with pianist Ruth McGinley, as she performs a programme centred around the works of Philip Glass including Metamorphosis, Mad Rush and The Hours, alongside reworks of contemporary popular music.
Ruth’s career has been wide-ranging and daring, collaborating with some of the most acclaimed musicians working today, and straying from the typical classical-pianist journey.
But it is perhaps the spaces between where Ruth’s interests really lie. A determination to walk her own path, Ruth’s love of music goes far beyond the classical world. A highly sought-after collaborator, Ruth works with musicians from many backgrounds including jazz, folk, electronic and film music.
Ruth released her debut solo album ‘Reconnection’ to high acclaim in 2016 and released her follow up ‘Aura’ in October 2022 with Neil Martin. In 2024 she was awarded the Arts Council of Northern Ireland Major Individual Artist Award.
Don’t miss this opportunity to hear one of NI’s finest pianists in a relaxed concert of meditative and immersive music.
