ADDENDUM - FESTIVAL OF MUSIC & POETRY
______________________
 
BéAL FESTIVAL (3 - 4 November 2010)
... sometimes a word will start it ...

David Bremner, a former organ scholar of both Christ Church
and St Patrick's cathedral (2002-3) and Elizabeth Hilliard have
co-curated a festival of music and poetry. Through four events,
twelve works of music (nine of them specially written) will be
placed side-by-side with readings by performance poets from
the experimental wing of contemporary poetry. Come and explore
with us the strange territory where text and music meet. Our
concerts will be vivid occasions with text-inspired artworks
scattered throughout the space: new connections will emerge,
the fascinating capacity of words to be both pure sound and a
means of communication will be treated intensively – by a host
of fantastic living composers from Ireland and further afield.

Further details of the Béal Festival are online here:
