SUMMARY:Music in Kilkenny Concert Series: Lumiere Quartet
DESCRIPTION:OPW Kilkenny Castle is pleased to support Music in Kilkenny Concert Series once again. The concerts take place in different venues in Kilkenny throughout the season. The Parade Tower\, Kilkenny Castle is delighted to host four of these\, the second of which takes place on Saturday 9 November at 7:30pm. \nLumiere Quartet\nClaire Duff – violin\, Elaine Clark – violin\, Nathan Sherman – viola\, Carina Drury – cello \nProgramme:\nWolfgang Amadeus Mozart – String Quartet in C major K.465 Dissonance  \nCaterina Schembri – Grüner Strahl* \nFelix Mendelssohn – String Quartet in A minor Op.13 \nThe Lumiere Quartet is an exciting new group led by acclaimed Irish Baroque Orchestra leader Claire Duff\, playing with classical bows on gut strings and offering fresh interpretations of Mozart’s Dissonance Quartet and Mendelssohn’s A minor quartet. The transition between Classicism and Romanticism as represented by these iconic works is the inspiration behind Caterina Schembri’s new quartet ‘Grüner Strahl’. This is the name of a rare meteorological phenomenon that sometimes occurs at sunset or sunrise – a green flash above the sun that lasts for a few seconds before disappearing\, a fleeting moment of transformation. \n* First performances. Commissioned by the Lumiere Quartet with funds from the Arts Council
