2020 | A look back

An overview

For the first time, we moved online for the 2020 festival between 13 – 16 August 2020 with performances from outstanding Irish and international performers from both sides of the Atlantic.

We welcome Fidelio Trio and violinist Philippa Mo to celebrate the music of Moeran and Deirdre McKay (our 2020 Featured Composer). Irish pianist Catha Breslin brings us a stellar piano recital including our tribute to Beethoven in this 250th anniversary year and our closing concert celebrates the 350th anniversary of the birth of Turlough Carolan. We are proud to present a specially commissioned digital installation focused on the sights and sounds of ‘An Dairbhre’.
