As we start to leave winter behind, we bring you an evening that will lift your spirits, with a special concert that celebrates all the joy and energy of music inspired by folk traditions. Make sure you book your place for the Ulster Orchestra’s anticipated return to The Alley Theatre in Strabane on 7 February at 7.30 PM.
Discover the magic of Bartók’s Romanian Dances, Bloch’s From Jewish Life, Vaughan Williams’s 5 Variants of Dives and Lazarus, and movements from Dvořák’s Legends Op.59 and Czech Suite. Each piece draws on the composers’ deep connection to folk music, weaving traditional melodies into orchestral masterpieces. These concerts are a tribute to the enduring power of folk traditions to inspire and resonate through classical music.
The Orchestra welcomes Rolf Verbeek to conduct the performance, while their own Cello Section Leader Thomas Isaac performs as featured soloist.
The On Your Doorstep regional concerts offer a unique opportunity for audiences across Northern Ireland to experience the richness of live orchestral music in their own communities. Don’t miss this joyous musical celebration that sees the full Ulster Orchestra onstage in the heart of Strabane!
