Two of Ireland’s finest musical ambassadors, pianists Hugh Tinney and Finghin Collins collaborate in an evocative and tantalising programme of French and Russian music in the RDS’ magnificent Concert Hall. Both international prizewinners, they have worked in chamber music with many of the world’s leading musicians including the Borodin, Tokyo and Ebène Quartets, violinists Isabelle van Keulen and Anthony Marwood and cellists Steven Isserlis and Han-Na Chang. Their début recital collaboration is sure to raise the roof on the penultimate night of the 40th Festival!
Pre-concert hospitality at the RDS will offer RDS Members, their guests and friends of the KBC Music in Great Irish Houses Festival a two-course evening supper with glass of wine (main course and dessert), choice of tea or coffee and pre-ordered interval drink for €30.
Advance booking is required and reservations can be made by contacting Ms Susan Cox, RDS Members' Event Coordinator at (01)2407244 or at email at susan.cox@rds.ie.
