Evlana presents New Horizons, an evening of diverse and compelling music performed by some of Ireland's most exciting and accomplished performers. The programme includes works by Aftab Darvishi, and Amy Beach, alongside rarely performed pieces by composers such as Rosy Wertheim and Vítězslava Kaprálová.

The concert also includes two world premières: a newly commissioned trio by celebrated Irish composer Ailís Ní Ríain and the winning piece from the Finding a Voice/Contemporary Music Centre competition for emerging composers, for solo cello. Highlights of the programme range from Judith Weir’s iconic King Harald's Saga, a dramatic work for solo voice, to Valerie Coleman’s Fanmi Imèn, celebrating our shared humanity.

This beautifully curated programme spans a variety of styles and eras, offering audiences an evening of fresh perspectives and captivating performances by a dynamic ensemble.
