SARC composers, performers and artists in residence take the stage at New Music Dublin on 3rd April

31 March, 2025

Thursday 3rd April, 3.30pm
Venue: Kevin Barry Recital Room, NCH

Hard Rain SoloistEnsemble:
Aisling Agnew flute
William Curran clarinet
Darragh Morgan violin
David McCann cello
Daniel Browell piano

Robert Coleman These hills used to be forests
Lara Weaver Soft Ground
Pedro Rebelo Crana
 
The three composers featured on this programme are field recording practitioners who explore sites sensitive to environmental change. These sites have been the focus of continuous listening and recording practices over a number of years, each revealing its distinct sonic character.

These are works that cultivate active listening in both performers and audiences—a kind of listening in the field—explored through an array of compositional approaches, including graphic and audio scores, field recordings from each of the sites, and live electronic elements.

Thursday 3rd April, 11pm
Venue: The Cooler, Smithfield, Dublin 7

Córas Trio
Conor McAuley drums, percussion
Paddy McKeown guitar, electronics
Kevin McCullagh fiddle, electronics

The Córas Trio reinvents the spontaneous. Deconstructed Irish traditional melodies emerge from blissful, otherworldly textures that foreground fiddle, guitar and percussion with transcendental electronics, suspending elements of collective improvisation with seisiún-style playfulness.
 
Leading lights in a fresh wave of Irish musicians exploring links between the ancient and the 21st century, Belfast’s Córas Trio is steeped in free improvisation, electronic music, and the city’s ‘seisiún’ or session scene.
