Strauss.
The artist line-up this year includes soprano Amy Ní Fhearraigh, violinist Phoebe White, ‘cellist Killian White, pianist Peter Regan, clarinetist Anna Webster and the Treske Quartet.
The opening night will be held in King House in Boyle on Friday June 7th commencing at 8pm.
As the weekend draws to a close, enjoy the final strains of the Bohemian themed festival in King House on Sunday at 2pm as Phoebe White, Peter Regan and Treske Quartet lead through you a journey of deeply personal and heartfelt music, including Janáček’s Violin Sonata, Smetana’s string quartet “From My Life” and the sweetness of Dvořák’s Silent Woods. Stick around for a cup of coffee in the King House Tea Rooms afterwards and catch the talent of tomorrow performing in our afternoon workshop!
