Imagining Ireland: Martin Hayes Exclusive Worldwide Stream

This event has ended

Online, Tuesday 8th December

The evolving soundtrack of Ireland, Imagining Ireland showcases the most exciting creative artists at work today.

For this one-off worldwide exclusive stream, arguably our leading traditional musician Martin Hayes leads an evening of authentic Irish music and virtuoso interplay. Performing live from NCH, Hayes is joined by jazz pianist Cormac McCarthy and Brian Donnellan on bouzouki, harmonium and concertina.

Rooted in the classical, folk and contemporary worlds, Martin Hayes founded the seminal Irish-American supergroup The Gloaming, whose self-titled debut album won the Meteor Choice Music Prize for Best Irish Album. Their global touring has included more than a dozen shows at Dublin’s National Concert Hall as well as performances at London’s Royal Festival Hall and Barbican. Hayes has collaborated with everyone from Bill Frisell and Yo-Yo Ma to Sting and Paul Simon. Hayes' long-term creative partnership with Dennis Cahill also saw the duo perform for President Obama at the White House.

The concert will be available to tickets holders for 48 hours following the performance

To Hell in a Handbag by Helen Norton & Jonathan White. The Secret Lives of Canon Chasuble & Miss Prism. This subversively funny take on Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest returns for a 10th anniversary tour, having sold out previous runs in Ireland & the UK. While others are preoccupied with cucumber sandwiches and railway cloakrooms, two minor characters from Earnest are up to their necks in something else. A country rector and a governess, models of Victorian propriety in public. But in private? This is the play behind the play: a tale of blackmail, false id
