young musicians into the audience to experience live performances
of an international standard at one of Irelands leading chamber

We invite existing young ensembles, or individual performers
wishing to become part of an ensemble, and their tutors, to attend
this exciting chamber music event. Suitable for string, woodwind,
piano and saxophone players as ensembles or as individuals,
