Castleconnell welcomes pianist Michael McHale

One of the country's foremost pianists and chamber musicians will perform in Limerick later this month as part of the Castleconnell Autumn Concerts Series.

Belfast-born Michael McHale, who has established himself as one of the leading Irish pianists of his generation, will be appearing at the All Saints' Church on Tuesday 28th October, 8pm.

Michael has performed frequently as concerto soloist with the Halle, Bournemouth Symphony and Moscow Symphony orchestras, Discovery Ensemble in Boston, the London Mozart Players and all five of the major Irish orchestras in repertoire ranging from Mozart and Beethoven to Gershwin and Rachmaninov.

A recent début with the Irish Chamber Orchestra saw Michael deputise for the indisposed Leon Fleisher in a performance of Prokofiev’s Left Hand Concerto with Gérard Korsten. His début solo recitals in the Wigmore Hall (London) the National Concert Hall (Dublin) and the Phillips Collection (Washington DC) received great public and critical acclaim.

Michael collaborates regularly with Sir James Galway, Michael Collins, Patricia Rozario, Ensemble Avalon, Cappa Ensemble and the Vogler Quartet.

At his upcoming appearance in Castleconnell, Michael will be performing Franz Schubert (Four Impromptus Op.90 I. C minor II. E flat major III. G flat major IV. A flat major); Traditional: (arr. McHale); Debussy (Estampes II. La soirée dans Grenade III. Jardins sous la pluie); and Mussorgsky (Pictures at an Exhibition).
