Gerry O’Connor is renowned worldwide as one of Ireland's greatest fiddle soloist and a founding band member of Lá Lugh, Skylark and Oirialla. Originally from Dundalk, he descends from four generations of fiddle players. He has recorded fourteen albums and has performed with all of the leading performers of the Irish music world including members of the Chieftains, Boys of the Lough, Planxty, De Dannan and Bothy Band.
For our final concert of the year, Gerry joins forces with the illustrious Breton guitarist Gilles Le Bigot. Together the duo are about to release a new album Live in Oriel which is the culmination of nearly thirty years of artistic collaboration and performances the world over. Come and enjoy the mastery of two great musicians in today's Celtic constellation!
From 18 October, Gerry O'Connor is one of the Irish musicians in Zingaro Equestrian Theatre's new production Cabaret de l’exil - Irish Travellers, conceived and directed by the inimitable Bartabas at Fort d'Aubervilliers.
