Lunchtime recital with pianist Cormac McCarthy and fiddle player Aoife Ní Bhriain.
Cork-based composer, pianist and arranger Cormac McCarthy brings a background across traditional, jazz, and classical to his innovative music. Presenting an individualistic use of Irish traditional tunes in the jazz idiom along with sweepingly cinematic textures, McCarthy successfully marries these two strong genres.
Accompanying him is fiddle player Aoife Ní Bhriain who combines the richness of a family heritage of traditional music and a lifetime of classical music training.
Trad Week Letterkenny is presented by the Regional Cultural Centre & An Grianán Theatre with the kind support of Donegal County Council & Arts Council Ireland.
