Why are Accomplished Irish Composers Applying for Composer Lab?
Composer Lab – a professional development scheme providing composers with the opportunity to write for National Symphony Orchestra Ireland – is now in its eighth year, but it should not be a replacement for a proper commissioning policy for emerging and mid-career composers, writes Adrian Smith.

@bsky.app.profile.cmcireland.bsky.social I enjoyed the Cór Linn & Cór na nÓg concert on Sunday with Mary Amond O'Brien, Ciarán Kelly, and the Leinster String quartet. Lovely pieces by Seán Doherty, the late Sue Furlong, Marian Ingoldsby, and Ciarán Kelly with Carl Corcoran. What a pleasure to see well-trained young singers really enjoying their performance!

As the C V Stanford year winds down
https://bachtrack.com/review-stanford-requiem-markson-national-symphony-dublin-november-2024
"Last month, his opera The Critic opened to great acclaim at Wexford Festival Opera. ... Stanford was a composer of remarkable intelligence and technical prowess, equally adept in both orchestral and choral writing, with a structural command that evokes comparison to Brahms. ...the Requiem by the National Symphony Orchestra and Chorus, under Gerhard Markson, was a powerful reminder of Stanford’s mastery.

Jak do tego dodać profile na #PeerTube, #Pixelfed, #Kbin, #Mobilizon, #Keila do newsletterów, #Wordpress, podkasty fedi na #Castopod (we własnej domenie), robi się bardzo ciekawy ekosystem - cyfrowe dobro wspólne.
