Pianist and new music specialist Joanna MacGregor performs in County Louth in June.

She gives piano recitals in the Town Hall, Dundalk, and St Peter's Church of Ireland, Drogheda, on 11 and 14 June.

Of her programme, MacGregor said: 'This represents something of a journey for me: from the challenges of Bach's great variations, to music from the Mississippi Delta inspired by my road trips across the Southern States; and finally tangos learnt from close colleagues of (another personal journey) the Argentinian master Astor Piazzolla. I'm delighted to be coming back to play in Ireland, one of my favourite countries, and to perform for some of the warmest audiences.’
