3 Kinds of Music: Emma O'Sullivan

Galway Music Residency's '3 Kinds of Music' Digital Pop-up Festival kicks off with a toe-tapping set by sean nós dancer Emma O’Sullivan with Shane Fahy (guitar and voice) and Ronan Flaherty (fiddle) on Friday. This digital version of the renowned multi-genre series, curated by Matthew Berrill, takes place on Friday 20 to Sunday 22 August 2021 and will feature some of Ireland’s best emerging and established musicians in pop-up gigs throughout the weekend. The festival continues on Saturday, with a performance by our resident ensemble ConTempo Quartet with cellist Aoife Burke who perform a lively Boccherini quintet. The weekend will conclude on Sunday with a moving performance by Galway Artist Niamh Regan who will be joined by ConTempo Quartet, Aoife Burke and Matthew Berrill for a stunning finale. The performances, which were filmed in The Mick Lally Theatre by Salty Productions will be available to enjoy for free on Facebook and YouTube at 1pm each day.
