brilliant interview by @cliodhnaviolin with @AliyeCornish & @Whelanpp of the @IrishBaroque about the upcoming @dubhandelfest.. really interesting to read about the way music was performed and listened to in the 18th century!
This month's edition of @theGOOdublin features an interview I did with @AliyeCornish and @Whelanpp of the @irishbaroque. We chatted about their upcoming @dublinhandelfest and all things 18th Century! Thanks to Peter and Aliye for sitting down to chat to me.
I loved doing this interview with @Whelanpp and @AliyeCornish of the @IrishBaroque about @dubhandelfest. Pick it up and check it out. It's a trip back to Dublins music scene in 1740. It was a buzz!
