The Marble City Sessions has created more than its fair share of groundbreaking collaborations and none more fruitful than that of Aoife Ní Bhriain and Cormac McCarthy. The duo first played together at the Festival in 2022, and now their instant musical rapport has led to an album, Cosán Casta.
Both grew up playing Irish music while also studying classical music, and while Ní Bhriain has emerged as a leading exponent of Bach’s solo violin repertoire, McCarthy turned to jazz, building a career as a pianist, composer and arranger.

Together they take the music they grew up with and mould it into something unique. With influences ranging from Tommie Potts to Locatelli, and featuring tunes from the Joyce manuscripts to their own compositions, this concert offers a deeply rooted exploration of Irish traditional music.
