A superb round up of recent music from IRE from Eoin Murray.

I ❤️ his take on my recent release

‘when the work is as patient, distilled & simple as this, it leaves much room for those individual listening experiences to evolve freely, & flourish into something wholly unique.’

Camae Ayewa, who performs as Moor Mother, called Luke Stewart “the best bass player in the world” but put equal emphasis on his community-building efforts: “He organizes things that are directly” tied, she said, “to the sustainability of the music.” nytimes.com/2024/04/29/art…

It’s all such a mess, very hard to see a way to rebuild trust and carve a path for reconciliation here. (Trying not to give up)

A state turning on its own citizens for peacefully asking that their taxes, places of work & study not be used to aid in the killing of people in another country is terrible and shocking, but don’t let this distract from the actual atrocities happening in Palestine…

The great Rob Nettleship performing live tonight in Dublin’s Kirkos Ensemble Unit 44… what a guy

Next week I’m giving a talk/hosting a chat for the CMC Ireland on collaborative composition. I will draw on some of my own work and the practices of Sol LeWitt, Fluxus, and the AACM to start a conversation. All welcome!

Your boy Andy Ingamells and a palm tree at the New Music Dublin festival yesterday 🌴

What a last day of New Music Dublin yesterday. A visual & sonic treat Kirkos Ensemble; pure beauty Rhona clarke Ryan Molloy Karin Rehnqvist & inti figgis-vizueta with Evlana; Earthy tour-de-force Ann Cleare & CRASH ENSEMBLE; left speechless by Il Ritorno del Angelo👏

firmly believe that everyone should see Mariam Rezaei at least once in their lives. Her show New Music Dublin National Concert Hall last night was one of the best things I’ve ever seen. Full of movement & taking us to different regions, but all held together in a seamless architecture 💪🏻

Was only able to the one gig yesterday New Music Dublin National Concert Hall owing to parenting duties, but this show by natalia beylis and co was a real stunner! Drones, Melodies, beats, and nature. Class… fair play

lovely review of our recent release in the Journal of Music

Exciting opportunity for an Early Music scholar here:

Starting to get a bit of the aul colour around here…
