Time has flown since the inaugural Festival in 2017 and I am hugely excited about our third festival which will build on the enormous success of previous years. This year’s programme celebrates two important themes. Firstly, 2019 marks the second centenary of the birth of perhaps the world’s most significant female composer, Clara Schumann. To honour her legacy we feature arguably her greatest work for solo piano, the Variations Op. 20, her stunning 3 Songs Op. 12 and the poignant 3 Romances for violin and piano Op. 22. The Festival is also proud to recognise other significant Irish and international female composers and will feature works by Rhoda Coghill, Amy Beach, Lili Boulanger, Rhona Clarke and Joan Trimble. The 2019 programme further includes seminal works by Beethoven, Brahms, Bartok, Dvorak, Gershwin, Janacek, Kreisler, Liszt, Poulenc, Rachmaninoff, Ravel, Schumann, Strauss and more! Secondly, by way of contrast, 2019 also marks the centenary of the outbreak of the Irish War of Independence (1919-1921).

  • Dancing Gods at Godless Festivals
    Dancing Gods at Godless Festivals An Introduction to the Phenomenon of Japanese Dance Yosakoi through a Comparative Analysis of Three Yosakoi Performances with the Theme Princess Kaguya The Department of Asian, Middle Eastern and Turkish Studies Master's Thesis 30 ETCS Japanese Master's Course in Japanese Studies (120 ETCS) Spring term 2016 Supervisor: Gunnar Linder Author: Theres Wik Abstract The aim of the thesis is to provide the Western reader a with comprehensive introduction of the phenomenon of Japanese dance yosakoi, as well as a better understanding how a yosakoi performance is made. The first half of the thesis discusses the traditional festivals and the folk performing arts of Japan in order to contrast these to the very young yosakoi festival. Then the paper concentrates on yosakoi performances with a specific theme, that of Princess Kaguya from the folk story Taketori Monogatari. A dance analysis method looking at different aspects of a performance was applied. The research questions dealt with what makes a yosakoi performance yosakoi, as well as how the chosen performances tell the story of Princess Kaguya through yosakoi and how yosakoi has changed. The results indicate that the use of naruko and folk songs, are the most striking common factor.
