Performed by Dave Flynn (IRE), the New Zealand String Quartet & traditional Irish musicians

Celebrate the rich Celtic heritage of the Southern Lakes with Irish Airs & Graces. Following sell-out performances in Wellington and Auckland, this captivating concert blurs the boundaries between traditional Irish music and contemporary classical sounds. 

Featuring the remarkable talents of Irish composer and guitarist Dave Flynn, the New Zealand String Quartet (NZSQ), and guest traditional Irish musicians, the programme breathes new life into Ireland’s iconic melodies, blending them with the expressive power of the string quartet. The "airs" highlight Ireland's celebrated lyrical tunes, while the "graces" showcase the intricate ornamentation that defines its traditional music. This collaboration beautifully intertwines the timeless and the contemporary, in a toe-tapping tribute to Celtic musical traditions.

The Southern Lakes’ strong Celtic roots make it the perfect setting for this lively performance. Renowned for their artistic versatility, NZSQ thrives in cross-genre collaborations, bringing energy and depth to Flynn’s inspired compositions. 

Set against the stunning backdrop of Rippon Hall, this concert promises an unforgettable evening of connection and artistry.

Had the audience smiling and tapping its toes to music of zest and drive… Elizabeth Kerr, Five Lines
