SUMMARY:Jack O'Rourke
DESCRIPTION:A captivating and unique live artist\, Jack O Rourke performs his most recent album Wild Place and old favourites at St. Mary’s Collegiate Church. \nDescribed as “Easily one of the year’s best albums.” by the Irish Times\, Wild Place is Jack’s first release since 2019 and has met wide acclaim; \n“There’s a soaring\, magical quality to Jack O’Rourke’s Wild Place. There’s an almost cinematic feel to the album\, like a soundtrack to some classic Hollywood movie\, perhaps by Nora Ephron. Wild Place seals O’Rourke’s reputation as one of Ireland’s most gifted performers.” – Hotpress  \n“O’Rourke is a vocalist of rare distinction. The album’s essence is to be found on Sea Swimming – a track that’s redolent of the sort of standards that Paul Brady delivered early in his career.” – John Meagher\, The Irish Independent

SUMMARY:Vanburgh & Friends
DESCRIPTION:PROGRAMME\nBeethoven – String Quintet in E flat major Op.4 [1795]\nBrahms – String Sextet in G major Op.36 [1865] \nSUMMARY\nThe Vanbrugh and their guests present two fine and highly contrasted works from the extended chamber music repertoire. Beethoven’s early string quintet Op.4 is his own re-working of his wind octet written in Vienna in 1793 where there was great demand for light-hearted wind band music. The arrangement for strings offers an attractive and elegant lightness of touch. In contrast\, Brahms’ extraordinary G major sextet is the work of a composer at the peak of his powers\, its mood ranging from the restrained beauty of the opening bars to the boisterous party music in the scherzo and the relaxed playfulness of the finale. The 32-year-old composer wrote it in idyllic surroundings near Baden-Baden\, Germany and it was premiered in Boston\, Massachusetts in 1866.
