  3. COLLEEN & Caoimhín Ó Raghallaigh


The special double-bill concert comprises the world-renowned composers Colleen (France) and Caoimhín Ó Raghallaigh (Ireland). Each artist has developed a wholly unique playing style and highly distinctive approach to their own respective instrument of choice: Colleen’s viola da gamba and ÓRaghallaigh’s Hardanger d’Amore fiddle.

Taking place during the May bank holiday weekend, this concert will be Colleen’s only Irish performance of 2015 in support of her soon-to-be-released fifth studio album on Thrill Jockey Records. In addition, this one-off concert will take place in the intimate setting of the Cork Opera House where the stage itself will be shared by both musicians and audience alike, making for a an unforgettable experience.

Colleen is the alias for French composer Cécile Schott (born in Paris, now based in San Sebastián, Spain) who has been making music as Colleen for over a decade now, beginning with a string of much-loved records for The Leaf Label (‘Everyone Alive Wants Answers’, ‘The Golden Morning Breaks’, ‘LesOndes Silencieuses’). After a four-year break, Colleen made her long-awaited return to music in 2013 with the release of her album ‘The Weighing Of The Heart’, its eleven songs featuring, for the first time, Schott’s own voice as well as a new-found love for Jamaican music and rhythm. Colleen’s hugely anticipated fifth studio album ‘Captain Of None’ will be released by Chicago-based label Thrill Jockey Records in April 2015.
