Dublin International Chamber Music Festival

This event has ended

Various Locations, Wednesday 7th June - Monday 12th June

This unique annual summer event, held in intimate non-traditional concert venues, has welcomed such luminaries as Vladimir Ashlenazy, Ute Lemper, Mischa Maisky and Pinchas Zukerman. Others who graced the salons of some of Ireland’s historic houses over the years include the Labèque Sisters, Frederica Von Stade, Janet Baker, Angela Hewitt, Krystian Zimerman, Richard Goode, Stephen Isserlis, Michael Collins and Guy Johnston. More recent visitors to this ever-developing summer attraction have been Renaud and Gautier Capuçon, Sean Shibe and the Belcea, Casals, Doric, Heath, Pavel Haas and Ébène Quartets.

Irish artists have always been prominent at the Festival, amongst them, Patricia Bardon, Ailish Tynan, Tara Erraught, Robin Tritschler, John O’Conor, Hugh Tinney, Finghin Collins, Barry Douglas, Carol McGonnell and the Irish Chamber Orchestra. In addition, the Festival has also been at the vanguard in affording younger Irish musicians, aiming for international careers themselves, an important platform.

Inevitably, the Festival has grown, allowing for a more diverse platform.
