“Hayes has a sublime lyrical and melodic sensibility that transforms all that jiggety-jig scraping into heartbreaking musical washes of the deepest melancholy and moments of sheer, sparkling exuberance.” — Sydney Morning Herald
Martin Hayes is regarded as one of the most significant talents to emerge in the world of Irish traditional music. His unique sound, his mastery of his chosen instrument – the violin – his acknowledgement of the past and his shaping of the future of the music, combine to create a formidable artistic intelligence. He has drawn inspiration from many musical genres but remains grounded in the music he grew up with in East County Clare. We are fortunate to witness him in St George’s tonight, in a spellbinding duo with bouzouki and concertina player, Brian Donnellan. A deeply lyrical, unhurried, highly evocative evening of music.
