A lunchtime concert in the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance's Theatre 2, featuring Dr Breandán de Gallaí (dance), Dr Róisín Ní Ghallóglaigh (vocals), and Dr Yonit Kosovske (piano).This performance explores symbols of what is seen and unseen, both in nature and in the vulnerability of our personal lives as performing artists.
As the Northern hemisphere approaches the spring equinox, the Cailleach, the mythological Irish winter goddess and supernatural being of storms, yields to Brigid’s youthful spring and rebirth, shedding her guise as life reawakens and balance returns.
Likewise, as the new moon emerges from its ever-changing cycle of waxing and waning, light meets darkness, and what was obscured is revealed. This lunchtime concert is one of many activities during the week leading up to the 2026 Limerick Early Music Festival on March 20th–22nd, the theme of which is “Masks & Masques”.
Presented in association with the Irish World Academy of Music and Dance, University of Limerick
