down.under.over.here - Sligo New Music Festival 2011

The 2011 Sligo New Music Festival will be Ian Wilson’s eight as director and the very special guests will be two outstanding Australian musicians – electric guitarist and soundscape artist extraordinaire Oren Ambarchi and one of the world’s leading recorder players, Genevieve Lacey.

Oren and Genevieve will each perform an exciting solo concert and the festival’s highlight will be a collaborative performance featuring both artists playing together in public for the first time. The festival will also present the world premiere of Ian Wilson’s new collaborative improvisatory work with saxophonist Cathal Roche and the RTE Vanbrugh Quartet.

The festival takes place from 15-17 April 2011. For full programme details and tickets visit: www.themodel.ie/music
