New Music Dublin 2019: Entente Cordiale


Pauline Kraus, violin
Gilles Breda, flute
Adelaide Ferrière, percussion
Josephine Besançon, clarinet
Jiwon Jang, piano


 

For the first time, musicians from the Royal Irish Academy of Music’s Doctorate of Music Performance course join forces with their counterparts from the Paris Conservatoire to perform new compositions from  Ireland, France, Finland and Holland in the magnificent
 surroundings of the National Gallery of Ireland.

 The programme includes works by the Dutch composer Louis Andriessen, whose fascination with the painter Vermeer is highlighted by New Music Dublin 2019 with the Irish première of Vermeer Pictures at the
 National Concert Hall, and Amanda Feery’s Blood Under Winter-White Skin, which takes its 
inspiration from Dorothea Tanning’s abstract painting "À mi-voix."
