About this event

Daisy Press and the Aleph, will perform in the Chapel at St. Vincents where the focus is on the haunting music of the Czech composer Martin Smolka, faintly oriental, faintly nowhere in this world. His Basho sets short texts by the revered poet in a sea of twinkling guitars. There will also be a brand new work.

“Exceptional things only happen when the passion of individuals nourish an idea,” Pärt tells me. “When Eamonn approached me in 2006 and asked for a new work, I felt this passion. It, and the story of Ireland, inspired me to create The Deer’s Cry, which ever since has been very close to my heart. I gratefully remember my collaboration with him and his society. The music world needs such committed fighters as Eamonn Quinn.”
