The Luminosa String Orchestra
With Guest Conductor Karen Ní Bhroin
Led by Paul Ezergailis and Bogdan Sofei

We are delighted to be performing stunning music in our 2024 season Bláthú (flourishing).
Featuring in this concert series is the World Premiere of a new work by Linda Buckley entitled 'Beannacht' (blessing) commissioned by Luminosa, alongside one of the most powerful quartet pieces ever written, arranged for strings by Luminosa: Schubert's Death and the Maiden.

This promises to be a truly special evening.

About Luminosa:

"Their performances are compelling, powerful and heart-rending. Their musicians are highly skilled and equally seasoned classical, romantic or early music practitioners and delight in playing a wide variety of music on modern instruments. Led by Paul Ezergailis, concertmaster of the Oslo Philharmonic Orchestra; the orchestra’s section leaders comprise the members of the renowned ConTempo quartet, and also featuring many noteworthy string players on the Irish stage. Coming to a Luminosa concert means coming to witness a passionate manifestation of live music making by world-class musicians and we are proud to be based in Galway"
