Venue: The Ark
Website: www.ark.ie

This culture night as organisations across Ireland throw open their doors for free-events, The Ark presents a mini music performance trail in our unique building. Sessions are approximately 30 minutes long, with two performances included. The first performance is a Toy Piano mini-concert performed by pianist and composer David Bremner. The second performance is the Swells and Shoots mini-concert which includes a dynamic cello and viola duo, who create a performance based on a short piece of music by composer Judith Ring called Swells and Shoots. The music has a lot of fun sounds in it with the musicians playing the instruments in unusual ways to create crazy sound effects as well has having lots of great melodies. When the composer wrote the music, she was inspired by how plants like vines and creepers grow by twisting, grabbing, swelling and shooting off in different directions. Tickets will be available online from 10am on Friday 22 September on a first come first served basis
