Approved

The French Connection: French and Irish Songs will see Niall Kinsella, Andrew Gavin and Kelli-Ann Masterson perform a recital programme that explores the parallels between Irish Art Song and French mélodie.

The programme will include songs to Irish texts by French composers such as Hector Berlioz (1803-1869), Henri Duparc (1848-1943) and Émile Paladilhe (1844-1926). There will also be songs by composers of Irish ancestry who were working and living in France: Joseph O’Kelly (1828-1885) who came from a family of noted musicians, and Irish-American composer Swan Hennessy (1866-1929) who settled in Paris in 1903. Whereas Berlioz, Duparc and Paladilhe chose French translations of Irish poet Thomas Moore for their musical settings, O’Kelly and Hennessy set texts of many of the great French poets such as Hugo, Leconte de Lisle, Verlaine, Baudelaire.

Many of these songs have lain undiscovered for decades and have only recently been rediscovered by musicologist Axel Klein.
