About this event

Soloists Lynda O'Connor and Ailbhe McDonagh join forces to bring you a special programme of violin & cello duo works.

Acclaimed Irish soloists Lynda O'Connor and Ailbhe McDonagh present an engaging evening of music at the United Arts Club in Georgian Dublin. Long-time chamber partners with over 20 years of collaboration, O'Connor and McDonagh bring their artistry to a compelling programme featuring works by Kodály, Handel-Halvorsen, and original compositions by McDonagh.

The Irish Times hails O'Connor as "one of the greatest Irish violinists of her generation," while Fanfare Magazine praises McDonagh for her "flawless technique, faultless intonation, and a strong yet meltingly sweet tone."

The programme also includes a selection of tango classics, featuring McDonagh's Calary Tango, alongside Libertango by Piazzolla and Por Una Cabeza by Carlos Gardel.
