2010 was the Chopin year and we celebrated it by including both of his piano concertos arranged for string quartet and bass. We also had Chopin specialists, Abdel Rahman El Bacha from France and the amazing young Chinese girl, Sa Chen. Libor Novacek and Rebecca Capova gave solo recitals and our chamber group came from France. Finghin Collins gave a memorable late night Schubert concert and Colm O' Brien once again entertained downtown with ragtime and jazz. Click to download a copy of the 2010 Programme |
