Concert-going in Dublin in the 18th century was very much part of the social life in the Irish capital. Given that Ireland was on the periphery of Europe, it could well be imagined how Dublin, in particular, was unlikely to be a place on the itinerary of internationally renowned musicians. It is therefore surprising how active musical life in Dublin was, and how many musicians of extraordinary artistic achievement did visit the city including Geminiani, Arne, and the protean Handel. The musical riches of 18th century Dublin will be surveyed in a concert with commentary entitled “Beyond the Fanlight – Music in Georgian Dublin” The performers for this entertainment are the Practitioners of Musick, John Burkhalter, narrator who will offer an illustrated overview as well as playing English and small flutes and Donovan Klotzbeacher harpsichordist . The programme taking place on Wednesday September 6, 2023 at 4pm is dedicated to the memory of Gail Kohn who resided for many years at Windrows.
