Crash Ensemble [REACTIONS]⁠ ⁠ Sat. 15 Oct. 8pm⁠ ⁠ Crash Ensemble are Ireland’s leading new music ensemble; a group of world-class musicians who play the most adventurous, ground-breaking music of today.⁠ ⁠ Amidst the onset of the global pandemic, Crash commissioned Irish & International composers from a range of musical backgrounds to write new works for duos within the group. Building on existing collaborative partnerships and cultivating and nurturing new relationships, composers were invited to create a musical response to their experiences, the current state and their thoughts for the future.⁠ ⁠ For this concert Crash will play a selection of these commissions & postcard miniatures, alongside some colourful favourites in this chamber setting.⁠ ⁠ Admission €15 / €10 (conc.)⁠ Tickets: themodel.ie⁠ ⁠ #Sligo #TheModel #Music #ArtGallery #WildatlanticWay #DiscoverIreland
