Widmann, Strauss & Beethoven: Con Brio
Here we meet Jörg Widmann as soloist, conductor and composer. With his piece Con brio, premiered in 2008, he pays a vibrant tribute to Beethoven in general and his Seventh Symphony in particular.
Kilkenny Arts Festival and the Irish Chamber Orchestra co-commissioned this project featuring arrangements from six composers: Cormac McCarthy, Paul Campbell, Linda Buckley, Sam Perkin, Niamh Varian-Barry, and Michael Keeney. Produced by Dónal O’Connor, Roisin Reimagined explores the connections between classical and traditional music and reimagines these timeless songs for a new era.
