“Virtuoso music from

18th century Ireland"
by
Beyond the Pale

on Friday 9th March, '07 @ 830pm/ 12euro incl. vino

Beyond the Pale is an exciting new ensemble founded by four Cork-based musicians who specialise in the performance of Baroque music. Boasting a wealth of performance experience in Ireland and abroad, each of the four musicians brings to the group a distinctive approach to historically-informed interpretation of the music of the 17th and 18th centuries. With a collaborative approach to the music of this period, they produce a vibrant musical sound which is faithful to the musical styles of the time.

The programme will include music by Ireland-based composer Geminiani and other (baroque) music popular in Ireland at the time, like Corelli and Handel, plus unique arrangements of O'Carolan tunes and other traditional stuff, all on period instruments.

Together, these four musicians make Beyond the Pale an exciting addition to the chamber music scene in Ireland.

Beyond the Pale are: Marja Tuhkanen (Baroque Violin), Conor O’Connell (Recorders), Ilse de Ziah (Cello) and James Taylor (Harpsichord).
