SUMMARY:An Evening of Music by Ryuichi Sakamoto Curated and performed by Ruth McGinley
DESCRIPTION:“Art is long… Life is short” \nAN EVENING OF MUSIC BY RYUICHI SAKAMOTO CURATED AND PERFORMED BY RUTH MCGINLEY. \nComposer\, pianist\, record producer\, and actor Ryuichi Sakamoto is perhaps best known for the score of the 1983 movie Merry Christmas\, Mr Lawrence which starred David Bowie. \n“As a music maker and curious explorer of the inner human experience\, Sakamoto’s life and work offers the gift of limitless inspiration. Playing his music is like looking deeply into your own soul…a profound experience.” \nContemplating his mortality in 2017\, Sakamoto said he wanted to make “music I won’t be ashamed to leave behind – meaningful work”. By any metric\, he already had. His view of himself was perpetually in flux. He had become interested in human playing through this circuitous route of the sampler: “I discovered something new about the piano.” \nThe significance of this return to the piano became increasingly apparent as his career moved from youthful pop star to chameleonic mature artist; the piano became an instrument at the centre of personal freedom\, rather than an archaic evolutionary stage leading to the synthesizer. And now\, what can we say\, he showed us music is never really about certainty\, only possibility\, and in possibility there is a way to live\, a positivity that Ryuichi Sakamoto never abandoned. \nDerry-born Ruth McGinley is widely recognised as one of Ireland’s leading pianists. Her career has been wide-ranging and daring\, collaborating with some of the most acclaimed musicians working today\, and straying from the typical classical-pianist journey. But it is perhaps the spaces between where Ruth’s interests really lie. A determination to walk her own path\, Ruth’s love of music goes far beyond the classical world. A highly sought-after collaborator\, Ruth loves to cross musical boundaries and work with musicians from a diverse range of backgrounds including jazz\, folk\, electronic and film. \nMatthew Nolan is a Dublin based musician\, composer\, academic and curator. He has produced new work in collaboration with some of the finest musicians around\, both Irish and international. He has worked on commissions from a range of prestigious performing arts institutions\, including National Gallery of Ireland\, BAM and Film at Lincoln Centre in New York\, The National Gallery of Art in Washington D.C.\, Kilkenny Arts Festival\, Bram Stoker Festival\, and the Saint Patrick’s Festival. His most recent projects were presented at MoLI in Dublin as part of their Ulysses centenary project and at the New York Film Festival filled up. 2024 will see the release of Pomes Penyeach by Universal Music\, produced in collaboration with Adrian Crowley and based on James Joyce’s short book of poetry.

SUMMARY:Eddi Reader
DESCRIPTION:Celebrating over 40 years as a live performer\, Eddi Reader has effortlessly developed into one of popular music’s most thrilling and affecting performers. What sets Eddi apart is the depth and quality of the emotional performance and ability to not only move the listener\, but connect her experience to that of her audience. No two performances are ever the same.\nThough first brought into the limelight as front woman for Fairground Attraction\, who’s #1 single\, Perfect and parent album\, First of a Million Kisses\, both topped the charts in the U.K.\, Europe\, Australia\, New Zealand and Japan\, it was Eddi’s subsequent solo albums that signaled her ability to assimilate different musical styles and make them very much her own. Notably\, The Songs of Robert Burns (2003) is a timeless interpretation showcasing the poems of Scotland’s national bard and gained her honorary degrees from Strathclyde University\, Caledonia University\, Stirling University\, Edinburgh University and Paisley University as well as an MBE for outstanding contributions to the Arts. \nWith her work in song\, from the traditional to the contemporary\, Eddi Reader extinguishes the preordained boundaries of genre\, bringing joyous life to all forms. Her rare blend of meltingly true vocals and towering romanticism combine with an astute and pragmatic nature to make her a unique and powerful figure in contemporary music. With 10 critically acclaimed solo albums\, and awards in tow\, Eddi continues to delight audiences worldwide. The past few years have proved to be some of her busiest yet\, playing sell out shows as part of her ‘40 Years Live Tour’ in addition to appearing as special guest with the Jools Holland’s Rhythm & Blues Orchestra for an extensive UK tour. \nEddi has also explored the acting profession\, through her acclaimed performances as Jolene Jowett in John Byrnes Your Cheatin Heart (BBC Scotland production starring Tilda Swinton). She also appeared as a 1937 jazz singer in Richard Linklaters movie: Orson And Me\, starring Zac Ephron and in her contribution as Joy 3 in Michael Boyd’s production of Janice Galloway’s The Trick Is To Keep Breathing\, (Radio Four and a Tron theatre production also starring Siobhan Redmond and Jenny Black). \n“One of my favourite singers of all time” – Jools Holland \n“Just perfect – Eddi Reader gets every song just right” – The Sunday Times \n“Flawless\, not just perfect\, world class” – R2 Magazine \n“Timeless and universal” – The Scotsman
