Aoife Nic Athlaoich teaches cello at the Cork School of Music, is a member of the Irish Chamber Orchestra. Malcom Proud has given harpsichord and organ recitals throughout Europe, North America and Japan.
Widely hailed as one of the world’s leading young trumpet soloists, Helseth comes to Waterford with her regular collaborator, Gunnar Flagstad to present a range of music for trumpet and piano. She has played throughout Europe and North America both as a soloist and with her 10 woman brass ensemble tenThing; many will remember their appearance at the 2013 BBC Proms.
Billy O’Brien is from Waterford city and studied piano at the Royal Irish Academy of Music in Dublin and also in Paris; his debut as a soloist with the RTE Concert Orchestra was broadcast on Lyric FM last year. Daniel Kearney is from Dungarvan and has studied with both Jan Cap and Finghin Collins. He has won many prizes for piano, including the Cross Border Orchestra of Ireland’s Soloist competition and the William Finlay Award for gifted young pianists.
