Music for Galway presents two concerts at the Norman Villa Gallery, Salthill, Galway in September.

The Gallery is hosting an exhibition of new work by international artists responding to the theme of music.  The exhibition is curated by Brian Bourke and takes its name from a quotation by artist Joan Miro: "like notes that shape music.
