Bookings open for prestigious New Ross Piano Festival
The highly anticipated New Ross Piano Festival, which is set to take place from September 24 to September 28 at St Mary's Church, New Ross, promises to bring together acclaimed artists, emerging talents, and enthusiastic audiences for a celebration of piano music across a range of styles and settings.
Now in its 19th year, the festival hosts an exciting line-up of concerts, a masterclass, and a Young Pianists Concert. Among this year's artists are John O'Conor; Hungarian pianist Daniel Lebhardt; Castalian Quartet and Finghin Collins.
Meanwhile, Greek pianist, Danae Dorken will make her Irish debut, and there's a new addition to the programme in the form of a Saturday afternoon concert. It will showcase familiar music from Broadway theatre and Hollywood films and will be performed by the brilliant Duo Pianistico (Stephanie Trick and Paolo Alderighi).
'We are thrilled to open general bookings for this year's festival,' said Finghin Collins, Artistic Director. 'This is a great concert series in the beautiful surrounds of St Mary's Church, from seasoned concertgoers to curious first-timers, we have a programme that will appeal to everyone. We look forward to welcoming visitors to New Ross.'
