SUMMARY:Kenton Cool - Everest: The Untold Story
DESCRIPTION:Presented by Speakers from the Edge\nEverest/Sagarmatha/Chomolungma has long captured the imagination of mountaineers and aspiring adventurers as the pinnacle of climbing: simply the highest point on the planet that ‘must be reached’. Kenton Cool – the 18x summit non-Sherpa record-holder – has created a new show to take audiences on a fascinating journey through the history of the highs and lows of summit attempts on one of the world’s most magnificent mountains: from its first ‘discovery’ as part of the Great Indian Trigonometric Survey\, through to the perceived ‘bucket list adventure’ that it is considered today.

SUMMARY:Declans Got Talent
DESCRIPTION:Declan lives on his own\, but he is not alone. He wants to prove to himself and his constant companion that he has got what it takes. After years of suffering from a lack of confidence\, he’s decided to “Go for it!” \nFight2Flight Theatre’s latest offering is Declan’s Got Talent: a new dark comedy for two actors by Peter Gowen. We see Declan trying to prepare for his upcoming audition on a talent show\, but there is someone else there. And as Declan tries to silence this other voice we are dragged back into East Cork/West Waterford in the late Sixties. We follow Declan attempting to enter the Church\, cope with his infatuations and watch him triumph over this negative friend.\nThe play is on tour for three weeks in the autumn and will be revived in January 2025 at Smock Alley as part of First Fortnight Festival 2025. \nphoto by Ed Guiry

SUMMARY:The Solas Quartet
DESCRIPTION:The Solas Quartet is a Cork-based group led by Irish Chamber Orchestra leader Katherine Hunka. For their fourth NSQF tour they bring another programme full of variety and originality. Haydn’s celebrated G major quartet Op.76 No.1 is one the greats\, its playful opening movement followed by a gorgeous chorale\, a witty scherzo and a virtuosic finale. Dave Fennessy’s musical career has progressed from school rock band\, through guitar and composition studies in Dublin and Glasgow\, and on to winning numerous international accolades for his music. The Danish Quartet’s album of arrangements of Danish folk tunesWood Works has attracted a huge following and the Solas Quartet brings you two of the best of them. Smetana’s autobiographical masterpiece From My Life is always a highlight of any programme; through its four movements\, this extaordinary quartet truly conveys a sense of the span of a lifetime. \nSOLAS QUARTET\nKatherine Hunka\, violin\nMarja Gaynor\, violin\nCian Ó Dúill\, viola\nAoife Nic Athlaoich\, cello \n

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.
