Hard Rain Soloist Ensemble : Donatoni Portrait

Belfast - New York - Milan series - Part 2

This concert, featuring the music of the Italian avant-garde composer Franco Donatoni, will certainly have an audience on the edge of their seats, though while the music of Donatoni may be difficult to perform, it is far from inaccessible to an audience.

In fact this music is charged with excitement, wonderfully rhythmic and beautifully colourful. The programme is complimented with equally exciting works by Belfast composers Ian Wilson, Piers Hellawell and Greg Caffrey.
