We are delighted that our recent Corporate Social Responsibility partnership with Luminosa Music contributed to a fantastic 2023 concert series and as we now look forward to our next concert series in 2024- Bláthú.

This programme title has been curated around the idea of flourishing, as humans, as an organisation and as an orchestra. The term is taken from positive psychology and relates to development, accomplishment, growth, and positivity.

The pieces of music we have chosen illustrate flourishing in several ways, that of music developing from quartets to become string orchestra repertoire, that of the accomplishment of having music published, especially lesser-known composers, and that of the development of our orchestra as a concept, a community and a diverse and equally minded group who commission and perform new Irish music.

We hope that this concert series will provide a metaphor for growth, positivity, and flourishing.

The Luminosa String Orchestra is led by Paul Ezergailis
Guest Conductor – Christopher George
