Now Nic Amhlaoibh joins the Irish Chamber Orchestra for R is n ReImagined, an exciting new project that pairs her peerless vocals with fresh orchestral arrangements of sean n s songs. Kilkenny Arts Festival and the Irish Chamber Orchestra have co- commissioned special arrangements from six leading Irish composers: Cormac McCarthy, Paul Campbell, Linda Buckley, Sam Perkin, Niamh Varian- Barry and Michael Keeney. Produced by D nal OConnor, Roisin ReImagined explores the connections between classical and traditional music, and reimagines these timeless songs for a new era. These works typically date from the 16th-19th century, and bear the hallmarks of high art and learning. In many instances, they bear witness to the artistic culture of Gaelic Ireland, which was under siege and endangered; the high art of their era. Amongst them are classics such as R is n Dubh, An Ch ilfhionn, Sl n le M igh \u0026amp; An tSeanbhean Bhocht. Nic Amhlaoibhs distinct voice and outward- looking approach has elevated these songs to yet another level through this project, and along with the Irish Chamber Orchestra and producer D nal OConnor, she has given a platform to a tradition that gives a deep insight into the Irish psyche. These sean-n s songs emerged from a practice that was part of a wider European and international culture, and this project will resonate with people from every corner of the world. The new incarnation of these old songs is a beautiful, uplifting sonic journey, especially for those fortunate enough to experience it live, and is sure to leave an imprint on the consciousness of the Irish song tradition.
