New Ross Piano Festival
The 14th New Ross Piano Festival focuses on all things piano related. It lasts five days in this attractive small time in South East Ireland. This year we are delighted to welcome Barry Douglas and his Camerata Ireland to New Ross. Barry and the Camerata are outstanding musical ambassadors for this island. The closing orchestral concert in St. Michael’s Theatre with three piano concertos is bound to end the weekend on a high.
Before that there are plenty of wonderful concerts to enjoy with pianists from Ireland, the UK, Netherlands, Germany, Italy, Israel and Korea and piano music from a huge variety of composers. We also look forward to chamber music by Penderecki and Clara Schumann, marking the latter’s bicentenary.
Our third annual Jazz Piano Day will present the outstanding Welsh jazz pianist Gwilym Simcock in a performance not to be missed.
