About

Hard Rain are proud to present this recital in partnership with Ulster Youth Orchestra. Here the 25/26 Featured Young Artist Charlie Shortt will perform both as a soloist and within the ensemble. The second half represents the annual celebration of International Women's Day and features some of their closest collaborators.

With composers from the North, South and West of Ireland, and born some 50 years apart, this programme presents multiple premieres while spanning generations and the geography of this island. Music by Paul Smadbeck, Keiko Abe, Lynn Glassock, Joe Locke, Elaine Agnew, Jane O'Leary, Bianca Gannon, Amelia Clarkson and Deirdre Gribben. Free for QUB staff and students
